Hello,

I wonder if there is a way to get notifications pushed by twitch (for new subscribers, for instance).

I saw that some bots send a message in chat whenever a viewer subscribe, and I wonder if they just ask twitch every single second, or if twitch notify them.

Thanks in advance.

They poll the API every minute or few to check for new followers. Subscriber notifications can be listened to via pubsub or chat in real time.

Ok, my bad, I just discovered the pubsub (thanks of you).

Thanks for the quick reply.
