I already asked / talked about this on the Dev Discord but to not get it lost until Twitch is back in the office I’m gonna post it here again.  
The “[Get All Chat Emoticons]([https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/chat#get-all-chat-emoticons](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/chat#get-all-chat-emoticons)]([https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/chat#get-all-chat-emoticons](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/chat#get-all-chat-emoticons))” endpoint hasn’t been updating since Fri, 18 Dec 2020 07:45:10 GMT.  
I myself use it for my Emote Content ID service but I’m sure others use it aswell for other services / apps.  
It also seems like the “[Get Chat Emoticons by Set](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/chat#get-chat-emoticons-by-set)” endpoint has the same issue if queried without an `emotesets` parameter.  
If I had to guess I would say this is related to a cronjob removal which happened around the same time as some old /api/ endpoints for certain whitelisted apps got removed.

Trying to build a “Today’s PogChamp” bot for discord, was wondering if there are any updates for devs being able to obtain emotes.

In this case I don’t even need the full emote set, just PogChamp.
