I’m reading the documentation of the new API and trying to transfer my v5 API script ahead of the removal date. Just to ask, is there now no way to obtain the last title of the stream and the last listed game playing on the stream via the API if the streamer isn’t live?

By comparison, on v5 I was able to pull up the title, game title, and follower and other stats without the streamer being live?

(Also if concerns anyone, this was a script used by me for me and to pull up info on the stream).

This is currently not possible

Helix doesn’t have feature parity with v5

It’s on the roadmap somewhere™

Meh I thought as much. I guess an alternative would be to save it locally in the event no data was received from Twitch on the return or maybe to provide placeholder data.
