Hello there guys, first of all I would like to start for thanking you for taking some of your time for me and helping me out if you can. So I’m new to coding and I would like to add multiple twitch channel statuses to my website. Basically if someone is online it says “ONLINE” if some of them is o…

So I have to start by making a js on my server with the following?: “POST https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token ?client_id= &client_secret= &grant_type=client_credentials &scope=” ?

Yup Server js being node yeah? Don’t need any scopes for this, as generally speaking server to server token can’t have scopes as for Twitch scopes apply to user tokens

And there is not other ways to do it right? Because I saw other things on the internet as well with “kraken” like this: " (function() { var user_name, api_key, twitch_widget; user_name = "name"; api_key = "api key here"; twitch_widget = $("#nametv_twitch-widget"); twitch_widget.attr("hr…

kraken is deprecated for removal in february.

But that would work still the kraken version till February? Because that would be fine for me for now.

I wouldn’t advise making something that will break for sure soon. You are better off utilising helix and eventsub. Since with eventsub you don’t even need to make helix calls. Twitch will call you when a channel goes live/offline.

Alright, but I’m working local and the website only contains front-end atm.

So I think it would be fine for me the kraken version for now.

But I’m not sure how to get it done.

Can someone help me out? :slight_smile:
