I’m able to retrieve games metadata containing the field user_id.
Results comeback as:
user_id: “39383020” <-- made up number
How do you go about converting this user_id into a user_name that can be typed into a url?
Thanks in advance!

Results in:
{
"data": [
{
"id": "39383020",
"login": "ironx011979",
"display_name": "ironx011979",
"type": "",
"broadcaster_type": "",
"description": "",
"profile_image_url": "https://static-cdn.jtvnw.net/user-default-pictures/4cbf10f1-bb9f-4f57-90e1-15bf06cfe6f5-profile_image-300x300.jpg",
"offline_image_url": "",
"view_count": 0
}
]
}
So we learn that “made up number” is actually ironx011979 at twitch.tv/ironx011979.
Great thanks!
