Twitch Channel Clips Scraper

More Social Platforms

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

Extracts top clips from a Twitch channel by scraping the channel's clip library and producing per-clip metadata and direct video downloads. For each clip the connector captures identifying information and the clip page URL, title, view count, duration, creation timestamp, thumbnail image URL, and an array of available video qualities with direct MP4 source URLs and frame rates (multiple resolutions such as 1080/720/480/360). It also captures associated game/category and game identifier, broadcaster and clip-creator names, clip language, and scrape timestamp. Additionally provides a channel-level metadata record containing channel identifiers and username, display name and description, profile/offline/banner image URLs, live status and current stream metadata (stream ID, title, game name, viewer count), broadcaster type (partner/affiliate/etc.), follower count, account creation date, and verification status. No login required; clips are surfaced in descending view count.

Calling contract

Call it through Sourcelane's gateway or MCP server. We run the connector, apply your agent's spend guardrails, and bill only the results returned.

Call it via Sourcelane

curl -X POST https://api.usesourcelane.com/v1/call \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"listing":"twitch-channel-scraper","params":{"username":"shroud","maxItems":5},"maxResults":10}'

Request params

Field	Type	Required	Description
`username`	string	required	Twitch channel handle, with or without the URL prefix. Examples: 'shroud', '@shroud', 'https://twitch.tv/shroud'.
`filter`	string	optional	Only return clips created within this time range. Clips are returned in descending view count order within the range.
`maxItems`	integer	optional	Maximum clips to return (1-100). Twitch's API returns at most 100 clips per request and blocks deeper pagination for unauthenticated traffic. To get more clips, run the connector multiple times with different Time Range values (Last 24h, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, All time). Capped at 100 per call.
`pageId`	string	optional	Reserved for future use. Twitch currently blocks unauthenticated cursor-based pagination of clips, so this field has no effect.

Each result contains

Field	Type	Description
`clipId`	string	Clip Id
`slug`	string	Slug
`url`	string	Url
`title`	string	Title
`viewCount`	integer	View Count
`durationSeconds`	integer	Duration Seconds
