Get Active Twitch Chatters

Introduction​

This code will give you a list of all chatters currently sitting in a Streamer's Twitch Chat.

This is particularly useful if you restart your application but need to know who was in a chat when you restarted it.

Send a request to the server​

You should include your cliendId and clientSecret in the body, so the server can find your extension.

Important API URL:

https://ws.chatrpg.com/api/twitch/getchatters

Body

clientId: "yourClientId",
clientSecret: "yourClientSecret"

Example of Usage

const response = await axios.post(`https://ws.chatrpg.com/api/twitch/getchatters`, {
    clientId: process.env.CHATRPG_CLIENT,
    clientSecret: process.env.CHATRPG_SECRET,
});

You will Receive:​

  • Each object in the chatters array represents one active user.
{
  "chatters": [
    {
      "user_id": "12345678",
      "user_login": "example_user"
    },
    {
      "user_id": "87654321",
      "user_login": "another_user"
    }
  ]
}
  • user_id is the unique identifier for the user on Twitch.
