Summary API Endpoint 404 #21

Closed xokocodo closed 1 year ago

xokocodo commented 4 years ago

Brief description The streams/summary endpoint does not work with game_name param set properly (e.g. game=Overwatch). However, the endpoint DOES seem to work if the game name is downcased (e.g. game=overwatch). This behavior is new (started 12/12/2019) and is undocumented.

How to reproduce curl -H 'Accept: application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json' -H 'Client-ID:<clientID>' -X GET 'https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/summary?game=Overwatch' returns: {"error":"Not Found","status":404,"message":"no summary available"}

Expected behavior Returns empty summary or current stats for the game

Screenshots N/A

Additional context or questions It would be nice to get some clarification from Twitch whether or not this is intentional or if it’s being addressed as a bug.

Also, the canonical example for this endpoint in the documentation is failing, so if this is intentional the documentation should be updated.

This is ticketed internally as GQL-913. The request is to confirm if this is a bug that needs to be fixed, or if game names now need to be lowercased, and in that case, an update to the docs are needed.
