Beyond the competition

• Channel analytics (no other Twitch actor has this): average stream duration, streams-per-week, average VOD views, days since last broadcast, most-played games, current viewers — derived from the channel's recent VODs. Turn on includeAnalytics.
• Lead enrichment: emails, links and social handles (Instagram, X/Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Discord, Telegram) mined from the bio and the channel's declared socials into a leads object. Great for influencer-marketing outreach.
• Monitoring / growth tracking: monitorMode stores state across runs. Channel records gain a growth object (follower delta and per-day rate vs the previous run); stream/video/clip/comment records are emitted only when new. Schedule it to build a growth time-series.
• Direct media URLs (includeMediaUrls, on by default): clip records get mp4Urls — ready-to- download .mp4 links keyed by quality (1080/720/480/360) plus mp4Qualities (with frameRate), straight from Twitch's public clip data, no login. Live streams and VODs get a playable HLS .m3u8 manifest. Turn it off to skip the extra playback-token call for live/VOD modes.
• Chapters & chat replay: full VOD game-markers and chat-replay comments, no login.
• Dedup, compact/flatten output, and clean CSV/Excel export.

Input (essentials)

{
  "mode": "channel",
  "channels": ["shroud", "pokimane"],
  "includeVideos": true,
  "includeClips": true,
  "includeAnalytics": true,
  "maxItems": 20,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

channels accepts bare logins, @handle, profile URLs or numeric user IDs.

Proxy

Proxies are included and configured automatically — just leave the default in place; it is enough and cheap for the bulk data, and the actor transparently handles the one field that needs special routing, so a channel's declared social links come back too. Only switch proxies if you ever hit rate limits.

Pricing

This Actor uses Apify's pay-per-event model: a small start fee per run plus a per-record charge for every result written to the dataset (channel, stream, video, clip, game, VOD, comment or schedule row) — on top of your own Apify platform usage. No monthly minimums. The exact start fee and per-record rate are shown on the Actor's Pricing tab in the Apify Store. Use maxItems, maxPerChannel and maxComments to cap spend.

Notes & honest limits

• Follower/following lists are not public on Twitch (removed in 2022) — only the follower count is available, and this actor returns it. No no-login tool can list individual followers.
• Lifetime channel "total views" was removed by Twitch in 2022 and is no longer exposed by any API; use VOD view counts / analytics instead.
• Media URLs are time-limited. mp4Urls (clips) and the HLS .m3u8 (live/VOD) are freshly signed with Twitch's no-login token, which expires after a few hours — download/fetch them soon after the run.
• This actor reads only public data and sends no credentials. Respect Twitch's Terms of Service and applicable laws when using the output.
