Reconciling Opaque UserID and Twitch UserID Oauth2

No, OpaqueID’s are just temporary ID’s and belong to no one

OpaqueID can and will change at will.

I have observed:

  • Loads page, has OpaqueID ( a )
  • Grants, has OpaqueID ( b )
  • Ungrants, has OpaqueID ( c )

There is not and should not be a way to a link OpaqueID to TwitchID as then you are tracking users before they granted. This might have changed but that is the behaviour I have observed. OpaqueID’s change at will.
