Is there a way to see if someone using an emote is subscribed to the person whose emote they are using?

Maybe I misread but I only saw an option for retrieving a list of your own subscribers

Correct. This is what the API offers. You need broadcaster permission from the broadcaster to check subscriber status via the API.

@A_G

Is there a way to detect that through the API?

Since you said “API” this is what I thought you were after.

@A_G

not for if the person using an emote is subbed to the person whose emote he is using

Well the emote only “works” and has emote placement in the IRC message tags if they are subscribed to the channel that emotes belongs to.

Like if I use a lirk emote it’ll just show up as plain text with no placement rules, because I’m not a lirik sub.
But if I use a cohh emote it shows up with the image and the placement rules.

For example

@badge-info=;badges=broadcaster/1,twitchconAmsterdam2020/1;client-nonce=264ef2a063a62b6538719559afee8fe9;color=#033700;display-name=BarryCarlyon;emotes=74353:8-13;flags=;id=2e53c5f3-8fd5-47dc-b759-ba6878ba08da;mod=0;room-id=15185913;subscriber=0;tmi-sent-ts=1594594886854;turbo=0;user-id=15185913;user-type= :barrycarlyon!barrycarlyon@barrycarlyon.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #barrycarlyon :lirikBB cohhHi

You’ll see in emotes of the tags it only has placement rules for the cohhEmote in the message, but not lirikEmote because I’m not a lirik sub.
