Free allowance included. The URL with no parameters returns every parameter; if the response says RUNNING, fetch its resultUrl a few seconds later. Agent guide

About

Fetches Twitch channel pages and extracts whatever the server renders into the initial HTML: display name (from OpenGraph title), channel bio / description, avatar (og:image), canonical URL, page language, live-status hints and — when the channel is live — the embedded JSON-LD VideoObject with stream title, description, start time (ISO), thumbnail and embed URL. Follower counts are extracted opportunistically when Twitch embeds them in the page state.

Best-effort coverage note: Twitch renders most channel data (exact follower counts, viewer counts, team, panels, schedule) client-side through its GraphQL API, which requires the web client-id — that data is not in the served HTML and is intentionally out of scope for this scraper. What is reliably available is the SEO layer: OpenGraph/Twitter meta, description and the live-stream JSON-LD. Because Twitch blocks most datacenter IPs, requests route through the premium Web Unlocker tier.

Premium — uses the managed web unlocker to get past anti-bot protection.
