can i get list of user_id of viewers of specific streamer ?
i create something using list of viewers usernames of streamer with
https://tmi.twitch.tv/group/user/streamerID/chatters… it give me list of username of viewers or chatters
then i use https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users?login= to get th data of every username…
there is problem here of limit_rate i get error 219 of too many request …
there is a solution to get directly list of user id of viewers for every streamer ?
Yes, you do exactly what you are doing. And handle the rate limit issue. You only need to get the user_id of a name you don’t have in your cache.
that’s what i do,but it’s not Enough for me …,for example the first time when i capture a streamer,he have more than 800 viewers it crash directly …
Well theres no other way round it.
You can look up 100 users at once. So with 800 viewers thats only 8 API requests.
https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users?login=foo&login=bar&login=another
can i contact twitch for in-limit requests ?
it still the same problem … with 20k or 30k viewer
Rate limits and how to obtain a increase is noted here
But you don’t need it
I don’t. I can happily handle a 30k stack of viewers.
Because when I do a fetch of 30k people, I already collected most of them on the last time I collected.
And I don’t have a increased rate limit. I do use a App Access Token so I get 800 points rather than 30. And I lookup 100 users at once.
And that reduces the request count I make
Ok thank you Barry i will find another solution
