Twitch Tv Twitch Helix API

Can I start commercial with the Twitch Helix API?

Yes. Use the POST /channels/commercial endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Twitch Helix API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I start commercial through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'start commercial'. Jentic returns the matching Twitch Helix API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Twitch Helix API have?

The Twitch Helix API exposes 137 endpoints covering analytics, bits, channel_points operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Twitch Helix API?

Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted, so your own rules decide which Twitch Helix operations and credentials the agent may use. Because Twitch routes its write and analytics targets through the request body and query parameters rather than the URL path, you scope the agent to just the operations it needs, such as reading the bits leaderboard or getting extension analytics. A write like starting a commercial or snoozing ad scheduling is not included unless you explicitly add it, and the stored Client-Id and token are injected only for the calls you have allowed.
