Label	Prop	Type	Description

	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Game Title	`game`	`string`	Watch for live streams about the specified game.
Stream Language	`language`	`string`	Watch for games streamed in the specified language. A language value must be either the ISO 639-1 two-letter code for a supported stream language or "other".
Max Items	`max`	`integer`	The maximum number of items to return at one time. Streams are returned sorted by number of viewers, in descending order. Videos and Clips are returned sorted by publish date.

Authentication#

Twitch uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Twitch account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Twitch and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Twitch API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
