The [Clip API in Helix](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#get-clips) doesnt have a response field for the duration of the clip, while [v5 did/still does](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/clips#get-clip). This sadly does not allow me to fully migrate to Helix. Would it be possible to fix that and add that field? I’m guessing the information is already there anyways, as we can call it from the v5 API and ofc twitch uses it as well to show the length of a clip, so it owuld just be a matter of adding it to the response JSON. Thank you. ---
