The data

Twitch data,
ready to work with.

A Twitch handle identifies a broadcaster; a clip and a past video are different content records. The recorded Ninja profile shown here supplies its source channel ID, account link, logo and an observed audience total. Profile gives account context, user/videos opens returned archives, and clip retrieves a specific short highlight. The available user/schedule operation can return an empty segment list, which is not proof that a creator will never stream. Keep each video or clip URL and collection date with your research. This API exposes public records, not subscriber-only analytics or a guaranteed live-stream feed.

Is Ninja live according to this page?

This dated profile excerpt does not make a live-status claim. Request current channel data before reporting whether a broadcaster is live.

Does an empty Twitch schedule mean no future streams?

No. It means that request returned no published segments. Plans can exist elsewhere or change after the request.

What Twitch operations can I use?

The catalogue shows 4 currently available operations with their individual prices. Open an endpoint for its accepted inputs, returned fields and limitations.

How much does the Twitch API cost?

Start with 150 free credits. Paid subscriptions start at $29 per month for 10,000 credits, before applicable tax. Each operation has its own price. Check the endpoint reference for variable charges. Compare plans

How do I authenticate requests?

Use your Monocrawl API key in the x-api-key header. The endpoint reference lists any additional inputs needed for the operation. Authentication guide

What request limits apply?

Limits depend on your Monocrawl plan. The Free account ceiling is 600 requests per minute and 50 simultaneous requests. Endpoint capacity and Free daily protections also apply; these ceilings do not guarantee source throughput. Read the limits guide

What should I know about Twitch coverage?

Follower totals and live status can change after a saved profile response. A channel schedule may be empty, and a returned archive window is not every past stream.

Is Monocrawl affiliated with Twitch?

Monocrawl is an independent service. Third-party names identify data sources and do not imply a partnership or endorsement.
