📗List of channels by different metrics and filters

You can get any specific channel top in our API by selecting the necessary filters. Streamers can be filtered by game, broadcast language, partner status, age, country, and other parameters. Here you can also select the time period for which you want the data — from the last 7 days to the statistics for the year (365 days).

Available filters

Each request will be sorted by Hours Watched by default. Other sorting options you can see below. The maximum period of time per request is 365 days, with the number of rows per request equal to 100.

Filter

List of channels, top 100, credits

List of channels, each next page (top 200, etc.), credits

No specific filters (overall top by platform)

Language (English, Spanish, Portuguese, etc.)

Game/Category (CS:GO, Minecraft, Just Chatting, etc.)

Platform’s partnership (Twitch/Kick/Rumble partners, Twitch Affiliates)

Country (USA, Brazil, etc.)

Gender (male, female)

VTubers (list of all VTubers from Twitch and YouTube)

VTubers Agencies (VShojo, Hololive, NIJISANJI, etc.)

Age (over 18 or 21 y.o.)

Content type (IRL, Gaming, Slots & Casino, etc.)

Growing streamers (different types of fast-growing streamers)

Games streamed (1, 2-5, 6-10, 11-25, 25+)

Average Viewers range

Peak Viewers range

Hours Watched range

Airtime range

Total Followers range

Followers Gain range

If you combine, for example, filter by the language (which costs 20 credits) with filter by country (which costs 40 credits), the system will charge the bigger amount - 40 credits.

Available platforms

You can get data only for one specific platform per request. To get a list of channels, use the filter by platform: platform={name}. Supported values:

twitch; youtube; kick; rumble; trovo; nimo; bigo; nonolive; afreecatv; mildom; chzzk; soop; steam

Supported time periods

You get a list of channels sorted by Hours Watched for the last 30 days by default. To select a different time period, use the filter time={value}. The maximum period of time per one TOP is 365 days. Supported values:

today; 7-days; 30-days; 90-days; this-month; last-month; this-year; last-year; YYYY-MM-DD,YYYY-MM-DD

Sorting options

You get a list of channels sorted by Hours Watched by default. If you need to get a list of channels sorted by other metrics, you should use the sorting filter: sortBy={value}. Supported sorting metrics:

peak_viewers; avg_concurrent_viewers; air_time; followers_gain

Pagination

You get 100 rows per page by default. To see other pages, use paginations, e.g. page=2

Exclude filters

Our API also supports filter exclusion mode. Use the ‘!’ sign before the filter value to do this. For example, if you want to exclude all female streamers from the Twitch channels list for the last 7 days, your request would look like this:

curl -X GET https://streamscharts.com/api/jazz/channels?platform=twitch&time=7-days&type=!female \
-H 'Client-ID: XXXXXXXXXXXX' \
-H 'Token: YYYYYYYYYYYYYY'

Use your Client ID and token instead of "XXXXXXXXXXXX" and "YYYYYYYYYYYYYY", which you can find here.

How to access the list of channels data set

You will need a Client ID and a token to use Streams Charts API. Your Client ID is bound to your account and can never be changed, but you can change your access token anytime for security reasons.

Use the example request below to see how it works with a list of channels with no specific filters. The TOP 100 Twitch channels for the past seven days are for free, we will not charge credits for that.

curl -X GET https://streamscharts.com/api/jazz/channels?platform=twitch&time=7-days \
-H 'Client-ID: XXXXXXXXXXXX' \
-H 'Token: YYYYYYYYYYYYYY'

Use your Client ID and token instead of "XXXXXXXXXXXX" and "YYYYYYYYYYYYYY", which you can find here.

The response you would get would be a JSON response that contains something like a sample response:
