Twitch authentication question

I’ve implemented the code to check if the user is a mod as well. I tried to save that data to a session by doing:

req.session.ismod = true;

But then if i request my /api/commands endpoint (which requires the user to be a mod) from my frontend, and console log ‘req.session.ismod’, its undefined.

Mod is not a flag returned by the TwitchAPI

It’s not available in the TwitchAPI to be fetched. Theres a couple of ways round it, like having your bot run /mods and reading the response or other chat based things. But it’s not in the TwitchAPI itself
