Downloading replays with chat logs

Hello,

I am trying to programmatically download 5 most recent replays from 10 different channels with the chat log included.

my questions is:

  • Is it possible to download a replay using the API (I want to avoid using web crawling)
  • If yes, is it possible to download the corresponding chat log as well?

I’ve seen http requests such as “https://rechat.twitch.tv/rechat-messages?start=1458316988&video_id=v55153756” gets the chat log but I also need to download the video replay itself and was hoping if the API supports such a task.

Thank you.

Neither of those are supported via the API at this time. The rechat endpoint that you’re hitting isn’t supported for third party use at this time. The supported API endpoints are found in our documentation.
