Hey, it’s cool that you are upgrading API version but I have question for you.

Is there any way to get streamer logo like in old v3 version via:

`https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/streamer_login`

[As I can see](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/channels/#get-channel) it’s still possible, but I need an authorized twitch account.

Note: I know I can do it via [[https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/channels/#update-channel](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/channels/#update-channel)](channels ID API), but I need to know these ids somehow.

Ok, I too quickly decided to create a issue:

For people from the future:  
here is user API: `https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/users?login=streamer1,streamer2,streamer3....`

Correct

As per the migration guide, you’d need to convert from UserName to userID and then call the get channel by ID, end point

[https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/guides/migration/](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/guides/migration/)

Or upgrade to Helix instead

Which takes UserName or ID
