Potentially becuase these endpoints (Get Mods/Get VIPs) were created before any endpoints (or helix could) supported the use of a moderator style token.
It’s was discussed during todays stream, and we hope that a number of endpoints are currently broadcaster only will be moved to support/allow a moderator token calling it as well.
This includes, off the top of my head,
- Get Banned Users
- Get Moderators
- Get VIPS
But thats all we have on the matter, a discussion on it in Discord and todays stream.
