Clips - error 404

API
1

Hi.

I would like to get json data of clips. Response:

{“error”:“Not Found”,“status”:404,“message”:“Clip does not exist”}

Another data like channel, streams is OK.

Are you requesting from API v4 like required for clips?

I use PHP + CURL:

public function getTwitch($url){
        $channelsApi = $url;
        $channelName = 'twitch';
        $clientId = 'xxx';
        $ch = curl_init();

        curl_setopt_array($ch, array(
           CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
              'Client-ID: ' . $clientId,
              'Accept: application/vnd.twitchtv.v4+json'
           ),
           CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
           CURLOPT_URL => $channelsApi . $channelName
        ));

        $response = curl_exec($ch);

        
        curl_close($ch);
        
        return $response;
    }

That gets the channel(?) and looks fine… (although you should use v4 only for clips and v5 for everything else, v3 is fine but should be avoided for new development)

I changed to v5 and is the same problem - error 404. Clips is exist, but message is:

Clip does not exist

CURL url look like:

https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/clips/playhearthstone/HelpfulYakBigBrother

Your code is appending twitch to the end of $url

My 3 function to get data:

public function getTwitch($url){
        $channelsApi = $url;
        $channelName = 'twitch';
        $clientId = 'xxx';
        $ch = curl_init();

        curl_setopt_array($ch, array(
           CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
              'Client-ID: ' . $clientId,
              'Accept: application/vnd.twitchtv.v4+json'
           ),
           CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
           CURLOPT_URL => $channelsApi . $channelName
        ));

        $response = curl_exec($ch);

        
        curl_close($ch);
        
        return $response;
    }

I choose type of data:

public function getApiUri($type) {
		$apiUrl = "https://api.twitch.tv/kraken";
		$apiCalls = array(
			"streams" => $apiUrl."/streams/",
			"search" => $apiUrl."/search/",
			"channel" => $apiUrl."/channels/",
			"user" => $apiUrl."/user/",
			"teams" => $apiUrl."/teams/",
                        "clips" => $apiUrl."/clips/",
		);
		return $apiCalls[$type];
	}

And I try to get Clip’s data:

        public function GetClip($url) {
		
                $s = $this->getTwitch($this->getApiUri("clips").$url);
		//$json = json_decode($s, true);
		
                return $s;
	}

return $s is temporary

And… for example:

$clip->GetClip(‘playhearthstone/HelpfulYakBigBrother’);

8 
CURLOPT_URL => $channelsApi . $channelName

makes it https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/clips/playhearthstone/HelpfulYakBigBrothertwitch, no?

Yeah, thank you! It’s works!

Stupid mistake from me :slight_smile:
