URL

GET https://api.twitch.tv/helix/bits/leaderboard

Request Query Parameters

Parameter Type Required? Description
count Integer No The number of results to return. The minimum count is 1 and the maximum is 100. The default is 10.
period String No The time period over which data is aggregated (uses the PST time zone). Possible values are:
  • day — A day spans from 00:00:00 on the day specified in started_at and runs through 00:00:00 of the next day.
  • week — A week spans from 00:00:00 on the Monday of the week specified in started_at and runs through 00:00:00 of the next Monday.
  • month — A month spans from 00:00:00 on the first day of the month specified in started_at and runs through 00:00:00 of the first day of the next month.
  • year — A year spans from 00:00:00 on the first day of the year specified in started_at and runs through 00:00:00 of the first day of the next year.
  • all — Default. The lifetime of the broadcaster's channel.
started_at String No The start date, in RFC3339 format, used for determining the aggregation period. Specify this parameter only if you specify the period query parameter. The start date is ignored if period is all.

Note that the date is converted to PST before being used, so if you set the start time to 2022-01-01T00:00:00.0Z and period to month, the actual reporting period is December 2021, not January 2022. If you want the reporting period to be January 2022, you must set the start time to 2022-01-01T08:00:00.0Z or 2022-01-01T00:00:00.0-08:00.

If your start date uses the ‘+’ offset operator (for example, 2022-01-01T00:00:00.0+05:00), you must URL encode the start date.
user_id String No An ID that identifies a user that cheered bits in the channel. If count is greater than 1, the response may include users ranked above and below the specified user. To get the leaderboard’s top leaders, don’t specify a user ID.

Response Body

Field Type Description

Get Cheermotes

Gets a list of Cheermotes that users can use to cheer Bits in any Bits-enabled channel’s chat room. Cheermotes are animated emotes that viewers can assign Bits to.

URL

GET https://api.twitch.tv/helix/bits/cheermotes

Authorization

Requires an app access token or user access token.

Request Query Parameters

Parameter Type Required? Description
broadcaster_id String No The ID of the broadcaster whose custom Cheermotes you want to get. Specify the broadcaster’s ID if you want to include the broadcaster’s Cheermotes in the response (not all broadcasters upload Cheermotes). If not specified, the response contains only global Cheermotes.

If the broadcaster uploaded Cheermotes, the type field in the response is set to channel_custom.

Response Body

Field Type Description
data Object[] The list of Cheermotes. The list is in ascending order by the order field’s value.
   prefix String The name portion of the Cheermote string that you use in chat to cheer Bits. The full Cheermote string is the concatenation of {prefix} + {number of Bits}. For example, if the prefix is “Cheer” and you want to cheer 100 Bits, the full Cheermote string is Cheer100. When the Cheermote string is entered in chat, Twitch converts it to the image associated with the Bits tier that was cheered.
   tiers Object[] A list of tier levels that the Cheermote supports. Each tier identifies the range of Bits that you can cheer at that tier level and an image that graphically identifies the tier level.
      min_bits Integer The minimum number of Bits that you must cheer at this tier level. The maximum number of Bits that you can cheer at this level is determined by the required minimum Bits of the next tier level minus 1. For example, if min_bits is 1 and min_bits for the next tier is 100, the Bits range for this tier level is 1 through 99. The minimum Bits value of the last tier is the maximum number of Bits you can cheer using this Cheermote. For example, 10000.
      id String The tier level. Possible tiers are:
  • 1
  • 100
  • 500
  • 1000
  • 5000
  • 10000
  • 100000
      color String The hex code of the color associated with this tier level (for example, #979797).
      images Dictionary The animated and static image sets for the Cheermote. The dictionary of images is organized by theme, format, and size. The theme keys are dark and light. Each theme is a dictionary of formats: animated and static. Each format is a dictionary of sizes: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, and 4. The value of each size contains the URL to the image.
      can_cheer Boolean A Boolean value that determines whether users can cheer at this tier level.
      show_in_bits_card Boolean A Boolean value that determines whether this tier level is shown in the Bits card. Is true if this tier level is shown in the Bits card.
   type String The type of Cheermote. Possible values are:
  • global_first_party — A Twitch-defined Cheermote that is shown in the Bits card.
  • global_third_party — A Twitch-defined Cheermote that is not shown in the Bits card.
  • channel_custom — A broadcaster-defined Cheermote.
  • display_only — Do not use; for internal use only.
  • sponsored — A sponsor-defined Cheermote. When used, the sponsor adds additional Bits to the amount that the user cheered. For example, if the user cheered Terminator100, the broadcaster might receive 110 Bits, which includes the sponsor's 10 Bits contribution.
   order Integer The order that the Cheermotes are shown in the Bits card. The numbers may not be consecutive. For example, the numbers may jump from 1 to 7 to 13. The order numbers are unique within a Cheermote type (for example, global_first_party) but may not be unique amongst all Cheermotes in the response.
   last_updated String The date and time, in RFC3339 format, when this Cheermote was last updated.
   is_charitable Boolean A Boolean value that indicates whether this Cheermote provides a charitable contribution match during charity campaigns.

Response Codes

Code Description
200 OK Successfully retrieved the Cheermotes.
401 Unauthorized
  • The Authorization header is required and must specify an app access token or user access token.

    Create Clip

    Creates a clip from the broadcaster’s stream.

    This API captures up to 90 seconds of the broadcaster’s stream. The 90 seconds spans the point in the stream from when you called the API. For example, if you call the API at the 4:00 minute mark, the API captures from approximately the 3:35 mark to approximately the 4:05 minute mark. Twitch tries its best to capture 90 seconds of the stream, but the actual length may be less. This may occur if you begin capturing the clip near the beginning or end of the stream.

    By default, Twitch publishes up to the last 30 seconds of the 90 seconds window and provides a default title for the clip. To specify the title and the portion of the 90 seconds window that’s used for the clip, use the URL in the response’s edit_url field. You can specify a clip that’s from 5 seconds to 60 seconds in length. The URL is valid for up to 24 hours or until the clip is published, whichever comes first.

    Creating a clip is an asynchronous process that can take a short amount of time to complete. To determine whether the clip was successfully created, call Get Clips using the clip ID that this request returned. If Get Clips returns the clip, the clip was successfully created. If after 15 seconds Get Clips hasn’t returned the clip, assume it failed.

    Authorization

    Requires a user access token that includes the clips:edit scope.

    URL

    POST https://api.twitch.tv/helix/clips

    Request Query Parameters

    Parameter Type Required? Description
    broadcaster_id String Yes The ID of the broadcaster whose stream you want to create a clip from.
    has_delay Boolean No A Boolean value that determines whether the API captures the clip at the moment the viewer requests it or after a delay. If false (default), Twitch captures the clip at the moment the viewer requests it (this is the same clip experience as the Twitch UX). If true, Twitch adds a delay before capturing the clip (this basically shifts the capture window to the right slightly).

    Response Body

    Field Type Description
    edit_url String A URL that you can use to edit the clip’s title, identify the part of the clip to publish, and publish the clip. Learn More

    The URL is valid for up to 24 hours or until the clip is published, whichever comes first.
    id String An ID that uniquely identifies the clip.

    Create EventSub Subscription

    Creates an EventSub subscription.

    Authorization

    If you use webhooks to receive events, the request must specify an app access token. The request will fail if you use a user access token. If the subscription type requires user authorization, the user must have granted your app (client ID) permissions to receive those events before you subscribe to them. For example, to subscribe to channel.subscribe events, your app must get a user access token that includes the channel:read:subscriptions scope, which adds the required permission to your app access token’s client ID.

    If you use WebSockets to receive events, the request must specify a user access token. The request will fail if you use an app access token. If the subscription type requires user authorization, the token must include the required scope. However, if the subscription type doesn’t include user authorization, the token may include any scopes or no scopes.

    If you use Conduits to receive events, the request must specify an app access token. The request will fail if you use a user access token.

For information about AutoMod, see How to Use AutoMod.

    Account type Limit per minute Limit per hour

    moderator_id String Yes The ID of the broadcaster or a user that has permission to moderate the broadcaster’s chat room. This ID must match the user ID in the user access token.

    Request Body

    Because PUT is an overwrite operation, you must include all the fields that you want set after the operation completes. Typically, you’ll send a GET request, update the fields you want to change, and pass that object in the PUT request.

    You may set either overall_level or the individual settings like aggression, but not both.

    Setting overall_level applies default values to the individual settings. However, setting overall_level to 4 does not necessarily mean that it applies 4 to all the individual settings. Instead, it applies a set of recommended defaults to the rest of the settings. For example, if you set overall_level to 2, Twitch provides some filtering on discrimination and sexual content, but more filtering on hostility (see the first example response).

    If overall_level is currently set and you update swearing to 3, overall_level will be set to null and all settings other than swearing will be set to 0. The same is true if individual settings are set and you update overall_level to 3 — all the individual settings are updated to reflect the default level.

    Note that if you set all the individual settings to values that match what overall_level would have set them to, Twitch changes AutoMod to use the default AutoMod level instead of using the individual settings.

    Valid values for all levels are from 0 (no filtering) through 4 (most aggressive filtering). These levels affect how aggressively AutoMod holds back messages for moderators to review before they appear in chat or are denied (not shown).

    Field Type Description
    aggression Integer The Automod level for hostility involving aggression.
    bullying Integer The Automod level for hostility involving name calling or insults.
    disability Integer The Automod level for discrimination against disability.
    misogyny Integer The Automod level for discrimination against women.
    overall_level Integer The default AutoMod level for the broadcaster.
    race_ethnicity_or_religion Integer The Automod level for racial discrimination.
    sex_based_terms Integer The Automod level for sexual content.
    sexuality_sex_or_gender Integer The AutoMod level for discrimination based on sexuality, sex, or gender.
    swearing Integer The Automod level for profanity.

    Search Channels

    Gets the channels that match the specified query and have streamed content within the past 6 months.

    The fields that the API uses for comparison depends on the value that the live_only query parameter is set to. If live_only is false, the API matches on the broadcaster’s login name. However, if live_only is true, the API matches on the broadcaster’s name and category name.

    To match, the beginning of the broadcaster’s name or category must match the query string. The comparison is case insensitive. If the query string is angel_of_death, it matches all names that begin with angel_of_death. However, if the query string is a phrase like angel of death, it matches to names starting with angelofdeath or names starting with angel_of_death.

    By default, the results include both live and offline channels. To get only live channels set the live_only query parameter to true.

    Update User Extensions

    Updates an installed extension’s information. You can update the extension’s activation state, ID, and version number. The user ID in the access token identifies the broadcaster whose extensions you’re updating.

    NOTE: If you try to activate an extension under multiple extension types, the last write wins (and there is no guarantee of write order).

    Authorization

    Requires a user access token that includes the user:edit:broadcast scope.

    URL

    PUT https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users/extensions

    Request Body

    Field Type Required? Description
    data map[string]string Yes The extensions to update. The data field is a dictionary of extension types. The dictionary’s possible keys are: panel, overlay, or component. The key’s value is a dictionary of extensions.

    Get Videos

    Gets information about one or more published videos. You may get videos by ID, by user, or by game/category.

    You may apply several filters to get a subset of the videos. The filters are applied as an AND operation to each video. For example, if language is set to ‘de’ and game_id is set to 21779, the response includes only videos that show playing League of Legends by users that stream in German. The filters apply only if you get videos by user ID or game ID.

    Authorization

    Requires an app access token or user access token.
