Hey, as we can see in the [docs](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc/tags#usernotice-twitch-tags), there are several `msg-param` fields, that are sent with USERNOTICE message. However, there’s nothing about parameters such as `msg-param-multimonth-duration` or `msg-param-multimonth-tenure`, but those are present in (re)sub USERNOTICEs.  
I would like to use those, but because of lack of the documentation I am unsure about how to use those properly and I don’t want to guess how do those work blindly on my own.

Examples of messages containing these parameters:

A new sub, 3 month sub:

```auto

```

A resub for 20 months, 1 month sub:

```auto

```

Could this be fixed? Thanks in advance!

Generally if a thing is not documented, it’s not intended for third parties to use.

if you feel it’s a documentation bug, documentation bugs can be filed on the GitHub [Issues · twitchdev/issues · GitHub](https://github.com/twitchdev/issues/issues)

Thanks for a light-speed reply! Yes, I am fully aware of that and thus I don’t want to use that and rather wait for proper documentation.

Thanks for heads-up about issues repo, will report a bug there!
