Hello,  
I have an idea for a twitch bot I’d like to make but the core of the bot involved giving users channel points. Does anyone know if it’s possible to give users channel points via the API?

It’s not possible to read, or change, a users channel points at all.

All that is possible through the API is managing rewards, and redemptions that users have claimed of those rewards.
