​
Prerequisites

This endpoint requires: 1. The connections.twitch permission enabled on your API key 2. A Twitch account connected to your TeamBattles account

​
Channel Identification

You must provide exactly one of these parameters:
ParameterDescriptionExample
usernameTwitch channel usernameninja
idTwitch broadcaster ID123456789
Using id is more stable since usernames can change. However, username is more user-friendly for manual testing.

​
What Are Channel Badges?

Channel badges are custom badges specific to a Twitch channel:
  • Subscriber badges - Tiered badges (Tier 1, 2, 3) with custom artwork
  • Subscriber tenure badges - Special badges for long-term subscribers (3, 6, 12+ months)
  • Bits badges - Badges for users who’ve cheered bits
  • Custom channel badges - Any other channel-specific badges

​
Badge Resolution

When displaying chat badges, use this priority:
  1. Channel badges (this endpoint) - Check if the channel has a custom badge
  2. Global badges (Get Global Badges) - Fall back to global badges
For example, a channel might have custom subscriber badges. If the set_id is subscriber, use the channel’s custom images. For moderator, use the global badge.

​
Caching

The response includes a Cache-Control: public, max-age=3600 header. Channel badges can change when streamers update their artwork, but caching for 1 hour is generally safe.
