It’s been well over a year since I’ve been waiting for Twitch to add the “Get Followed Streams” API that Twitch has had with the v3 and v5 APIs. Why has this interface not been implemented into the new API yet? To replicate this “Get Followed Streams” API using the new API requires potentially TENS of API requests, as opposed to 1 with the old API.

Please add this interface, so I can update my clients/applications to the new Twitch API.

Helix will have parity with V5 before V5 is removed.

Also under helix, remember you can do

> [https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user\_id=foo&user\_id=bar](https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user_id=foo&user_id=bar)

Up to 100, so you can minimize the requests that way by batching whom you following into groups of 100.
