Checking for Prime subscribers

Is it possible to check if a user can view a channel’s subscription content via a Prime subscription? The existing subscriber check (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/users/#check-user-subscription-by-channel) doesn’t consider this.

Hi

You can easily check if the sub is a prime sub. You have seen the docs for sub checks, if you look at the example response there is a subPlan field returned. You can tell if a sub is a Prime sub from the value set for this field.

I believe the valid values for sub plan are: Prime, 1000, 2000 and 3000

Hope this help :slight_smile:

Kraken will return 1000, 2000 or 3000. Prime subs will show up with regular ones as 1000.

The docs have been updated to include Prime as a valid result. I have no idea if this has been implemented or is a planned feature, however. I haven’t had time to test myself yet.

@Ponny If the Prime resuilt in the msg-param-sub-plan tag isn’t implemented yet, you can always just parse the system-msg tag for “Twitch Prime” as a temporary fix.
