Hi boiz & gurls.  
I’ve checked the documentation and i can’t find a endpoint allowing someone to export a VOD to youtube programatically.  
I know that tools already exists to download the vod and to upload it to youtube afterward but i’d rather use a built-in Twitch endpoint to skip the download part.

Can someone confirm that it’s not possible yet with the TwitchAPI ?:deilluminati:

Not possible with any public API at this point. Also judging by how “reliable” the export is and that there wasn’t really a change in the product for years I don’t think it’s ever coming.
