Twitch Profile Scraper API
Pull a Twitch channel from a handle: bio, follower count, partner or affiliate status, and whether it is live right now. No headless browsers, no captchas, proxies included.

From Request to Clean JSON
You write one line. We do everything between the request and the data.
You send
One API call
GET the Twitch endpoint with your key. That's all your code does.
We handle
Proxies · captchas · parsing
Residential exit, anti-bot walls, JS rendering and extraction, all server-side, on us.
You get
Clean JSON
A structured object every time. No HTML, no scraping code, no maintenance.
The Twitch Profile endpoint is one API call: send an account handle with your HProxy key and get back a clean, structured JSON object. Pull a Twitch channel from a handle: bio, follower count, partner or affiliate status, and whether it is live right now. HProxy runs the proxies, sessions, anti-bot handling and parsing server-side, so there is no headless browser to babysit and no parser to keep fixing when Twitch changes its markup. You only ever touch the JSON.
What the Twitch Profile API returns
bio / links
Public bio text and any linked URLs.
counts
Followers, following and post or video counts.
isVerified
Verification and account-type flags.
avatar
Profile image URL and display name.
Example response

The Twitch profile endpoint

handlestringrequiredAccount handle or @username.
trimbooleanoptionalReturn a slimmed-down payload (drops verbose fields).
cache_max_agestringoptionalAccept a cached result up to this old (1d, 3d, 7d, 14d or 30d) and pay nothing for it. Omit for a live scrape. Allowed values: `1d`, `3d`, `7d`, `14d`, `30d`.
Example request
curl "https://hproxy.com/api/v1/scrape/twitch/profile?handle=twitch" \
-H "X-API-Key: hpx_your_key_here"POST with a JSON body works too. Failed calls, timeouts and rate-limited calls are never billed.
Scraping Twitch profile in three steps
Create a free account
Sign up and top up any amount. The balance pays for every HProxy product and never expires.
Grab your API key
One key from the dashboard authenticates every scraper, Twitch profile included.
Call the endpoint
Send the target to the Twitch Profile endpoint and read the JSON. That is the whole integration.
No captchas, ever
Anti-bot walls, JS rendering and rate limits are handled server-side. You call an API, that is the whole job.
Residential-backed
Every request exits through HProxy's own residential network, so it looks like a real user on a real device.
Pay per call
No subscription, no seat licenses. Calls are billed from your balance and the balance never expires.
Fresh on every call
Responses are scraped live at request time, no stale cache dressed up as data.
Failures are free
Automatic retries first; if an extraction still fails, the call is not charged.
Scales with you
From one call to millions: same endpoint, same price curve, volume discounts as you grow.
What people build with it
Enrich a CRM or lead list with live Twitch profile data.
Verify accounts and detect fakes at scale.
Track competitor profiles and bios for changes.
