Get User Emotes Documentation Issues

[Nerixyz]

Brief description

While implementing support for the Get User Emotes endpoint in Chatterino, I noticed some shortcomings in the documentation of the response.

• data.name has the wrong documentation (currently: "The User ID of broadcaster whose channel is receiving the unban request.")
• data.emote_type doesn't list all possible values, but the phrasing implies all possible values are listed. (Resolved in #928)
• data.emote_set_id doesn't mention that it might be empty and why it could be empty.
• data.owner_id doesn't mention that it might be empty and why it could be empty.

Expected documentation

• data.name: The name of the emote. This is the name that viewers type in the chat window to get the emote to appear.
• data.emote_type: The type of emote. Some possible values are: bitstier, follower, subscriptions, globals.
• data.emote_set_id: An ID that identifies the emote set that the emote belongs to. Empty if ...
• data.owner_id: The ID of the broadcaster who owns the emote. Empty if ...

Additional context or questions

While implementing, I also noticed that the endpoint requires quite a lot of requests. For my user with two subscriptions, I had to make 28 requests to get all emotes for one channel. There are users with a lot more subs and a lot of channels open (25-100) which would - assuming 30 requests for one channel - make up to 3000 requests just starting the app. Most pages are sparsely populated, I got the following page sizes:

• 4
• 20x 5
• 9
• 10
• 16
• 21
• 46
• 47
• 268

These could easily fit into 2–4 pages.

Should I open a separate issue for this?

Not a bug with helix is what I was told when I asked about it
