Best way to update User Subscription status?

@AlexMog

Then, we have a worker that runs every 6 horurs, and get all the subscribers of the channel, check if our users are still Subscribed or not or if they have subscribed in the meantime.

The problem here, is that’s i’m not sure it’s the best solution to do that.

What I do instead of getting a user token with subscriber status is:

1. Get user to link their Twitch Account with $Mysite and only request the email scope.
2. Using a channel_subscribers scoped token for the channel, I fetch all tge channel subscribers, every 3 hours.

This minimises the API requests, to number of subscribers to my channel/100 API requests instead of one API request per user.

Also means you don’t request the subscribers scope from the user, as some users, won’t want to grant you access to see ALL the channels they subscriber to.

3. Once I got the list just DB compare

Basically you don’t do a user -> channel check, but a channel -> user check. It’s better/less scary scopes on the API for the user, and way less API requests.

Hope that helps
