I'm trying to check whether a twitch stream is online using python. This question has been asked here before however now I think the responses are out of date in relation to the twitch API. For example https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/syndicate just says that I did not specify a user ID. {"error":"Bad Request","status":400,"message":"No client id specified"}

Thanks for any help!

As stated in the Twitch documentation, a client ID is required or a 400 is returned.

To get one go to here and register an application on the Twitch developer portal

After that, you can choose how you send the client-id, either through a request header called Client-ID or as a query parameter called client_id

For more information, you can find everything I've just summarised here
