I’m creating a Twitch Bot In Node.js, the problem is when I use a !uptime command I’ve created the data object is empty as if I’m offline although I’m live.

What could be the problem?

Caching!

You’ve not been live long enough to show in the API.

I was live for over an hour without it displaying my status, so unless the caching servers are really slow I think there’s an issue. Anyway, I switched accounts and it works for the current account. 🙂
