(Request) Video type in JSON reply

API
1

Hi Twitch devs,

Could the Video Helix API response be modified to include the video type? Currently it seems that if I wanted to get info for, say, 10 latest videos from a user and know their type, I actually have to make three different requests, one for each specific type. Not to mention manually rearranging them to see which 10 ones actually are the newest or have the most views.
