There is an undocumented Kraken endpoint that will be useful to you:

> [https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/:user\_id/chat/channels/:channel\_id?api\_version=5](https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/:user_id/chat/channels/:channel_id?api_version=5)

For example: Alca in ScufJumpn’s channel.

> [https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/7676884/chat/channels/64284181?api\_version=5](https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users/7676884/chat/channels/64284181?api_version=5)

```json
{
	"_id": "7676884",
	"login": "alca",
	"display_name": "Alca",
	"color": "#177DE3",
	"is_verified_bot": true, // This won't be true for most users.
	"badges": [
		{
			"id": "moderator",
			"version": "1"
		},
		{
			"id": "subscriber",
			"version": "12"
		},
		{
			"id": "bits",
			"version": "1000"
		}
	]
}

```

Just look for the “moderator” badge.
