Does the Twitch API support viewing and managing my own following list?

API

Hi, I’m trying to understand what the Twitch API currently allows for managing a user’s own following list.

I’m working on a website that would allow a user to:

  • View their complete Twitch following list
  • See the total number of channels they follow
  • Select channels from the list
  • Unfollow selected channels when they click an “Unfollow” button
  • Potentially select and unfollow multiple channels at once

I would not unfollow anything without the user explicitly selecting the channels and clicking the unfollow action.

I’ve seen the user:read:follows OAuth scope and references to user:modify:follows. Does Twitch currently provide an official API endpoint and OAuth scope for unfollowing channels?

If bulk unfollowing isn’t supported directly, is there an officially supported way to accomplish this through the Twitch API?

Thanks!

View yes: Reference | Twitch Developers
Manage no

This shouldn’t be in the current documentation but might be in older non official Twitch sources and/or outdated AI responses

Managing follows is is long removed from the API
