Get all categories & viewer count

API
1

Hi Guys,
First off , is there a way to get a list of ALL categories as games/top only returns 100

Also is there a way to get the viewer count of a category
For example Just chatting - xxxx viewers ?
Not viewing individual streams but the total viewer count for all streams under each category

If at all possible

Thanks

Here is an example, for viewercount for categories

https://barrycarlyon.github.io/twitch_misc/examples/browse_categories/

And you can get more that 100

Set first to 100 then paginate as deep as you want to go.

After page 3 you’ll probably get a mess of results as streamrers will go online/offline whilst loading data

Ahh didnt think about that, thank you.
Really surprised how simple this API is …
I’ve had a nightmare with APIs this week but Twitch’s seems to be really indepth

Love it :slight_smile:
