How to transfer Twitch Application

Is there a way to transfer an Twitch application to a new email address?
We developed an app but unfortunately it was registered from a twitch account with a personal email. Now we want to move/transfer the app to a company email Twitch account.

Hi.

It’s not clear what you are asking here. If you mean you want to change your client-Id used by your app then you should be able to register your application on the new twitch account and use the new client-id.

@varinderdhesi thanks for the answer. Yes, I mean the client-id.

I know I can register a new app/new client-id, but I don’t want to do that, because we already have users using our app, I don’t want to ask them to re-authorize a new app and I think I will not be able to get the app name again (because Twitch don’t allow two apps with the same name).

In this case then I would contact twitch support directly and see how they might be able to help.

As far as I am aware you can’t just move an app from one account to another using the settings on the website.

@varinderdhesi this may sound silly but do you know where to contact them? I found this: https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/emails/new but it looks like it is there for streamer/viewer not for developer.

I think if you fill in the form there they will forward you to the right department or you can contact @TwitchSupport on twitter and they should be able to guide you.

Thank you very much @varinderdhesi. I am going to send them an email.
