well xgerhard ( @gerhardoh ) on Twitter hooked me up with a working one which was nice of him! So i think it might be solved for now unless you guys are wanting to do something with it.
thanks Izl
I honestly love you for making this thread, this has helped tremendously, and made being the main command creater for a less tech friendly streamer so much more smooth. Props to you

The âReturns a Random Subscriber of the channelâ Legacy API seems to be malfunctioning. Is there a replacement or a fix?
I use this command every stream to reward a random subscriber.
This is the Error I am receiving:
Warning:
file_get_contents(https://apis.rtainc.co/twitch/subscribers/THISISMYTOKEN):
failed to open stream: Connection refused in /home/rtainc/www/apis.rtainc.co/twitchbot/randomsub.php on line 2
Warning: array_rand() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/rtainc/www/apis.rtainc.co/twitchbot/randomsub.php on line 4
The issue should now be fixed. Sorry about that.

Itâs working again; thanks for the fast response!
It looks like the Random Sub command is broken again!
Itâs pulling up this error: Notice: Undefined index: subscribsaers in /home/rtainc/www/apis.rtainc.co/twitchbot/randomsub.php on line 4
It looks like âsubscribersâ is misspelled on Line 4. Can this be fixed?
Sorry about all this; I use this command for a daily giveaway.
Feel free to try out the new giveaways page in the control panel as it might work better for that purpose: https://beta.nightbot.tv/giveaways
Is there a way to make a command to run a giveaway, Night?
I currently rely on this API command because I can just enter !subwinner into the chat the same way I would enter !winner into the chat, rather than having to open Nightbot and mess with all of the confusing Giveaway buttons. Iâve tried doing Giveaways on the Nightbot page before, and itâs kind of cumbersome and takes more time to set up than just entering a command and having a winner pop up.
Hey @rtainc
Iâve been working on getting a !funfact api set up. I finally got around to writing an html/javascript file that would pull from an array of 100 fun facts and display one of those, but I found out, after the fact, that NightBot does not work well/at all with javascript.

I donât have any php experience, but I know SQL so it canât be too hard. Would I be able to just create a program with it and host the file on my domain and use that as the custom api link? Or would I need to create a LEMP and get all of the choices set in a SQL database? I currently have github, nginx, and a digitalocean droplet to work with.
Thanks,

While Iâm no php or api master, I can help you out based on my knowledge of it.
but I found out, after the fact, that NightBot does not work well/at all with javascript.
The reason JavaScript wonât produce an answer is because it is a client-side programming language. The only languages that work have to be server-side (PHP, Python, Ruby, etc.).
Would I be able to just create a program with it and host the file on my domain and use that as the custom api link?
Yes you can just be sure that is it a server-side language and that the text returned is < 400 characters.
As far as the rest of your knowledge I just tried my luck at php and got the results to turn out well, youâre welcome to use it.
Here is a basic starting point for you with a couple of facts (you can add in the rest): Fun Facts · GitHub
And the final result:
No Longer Available
Hope this helps!
I tried that and I tried the other stuff to none of them will work for me, I did: !addcom !following $(c9i67z8lajpfyhubszf1ho0zf5s645 https://apis.rtainc.co/twitchbot/following?channel=CHANNEL&user=$(user)) . why it no work? oh ya Iâm using nightbot, does that matter?
@austin_and_gaming Not sure what that code is, if thats an auth key better remove it 
Try this, change CHANNEL to your channelname:
!addcom !following $(customapi https://apis.rtainc.co/twitchbot/following?channel=CHANNEL&user=$(user))
@rtainc Not following returns a 404 warning.
Thanks. The live webpage demo does not ever load for me, but I get the idea from the github coding. I added php to my server, Iâll get around to adding the code later tonight and let you know if I get it working.
(When I get it working, it should be live at http://noahsiano.com/funfact.php)
EDIT: uploaded the .php file to server, and all I get is a download whenever I visit the link. Apparantly I donât know how to set it up to just be a script, or I set up php wrong on my server haha. Any ideas?
Hello, I am new and just getting into working with night bot. I am in search of a point system and mabey a blackjack or scramble game as well? Would one of you kind people point me in the right direction and or assist me
@noahsiano The web host you are using needs to support PHP. If it doesnât, loading your page will just give you the raw text source of the page.
@dbootyhd Nightbot does not yet have a loyalty system, but it is highly requested and is something weâll be working on in the future. As for games, they tend to be quite spammy but itâs something we might explore if thereâs enough interest (thereâs not any at present).
Iâm gonna have to work on it on my own. Iâve got php5 installed and itâs running, I believe itâs just a matter of I donât know how to properly host a php script haha.
Thanks for the help @Aaron128l and @night 
I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to host an API for me. HotsLogs offers a very basic API for Heroes of the Storm via hotslogs.com/API/Players/1/(BattleTag_####~)
Ex: https://www.hotslogs.com/API/Players/1/McIntyre_1261
If someone could structure one to return something like â%NAME% - Quick Match [Rank %RANK_1%]: %MMR_1% | Hero League [Rank %RANK_2%]: %MMR_2% | Team League [Rank %RANK_3%]: %MMR_3% - Profile: https://www.hotslogs.com/Player/Profile?PlayerID=%PLAYERID%â
That would be super sick and much appreciated by many streamers. I donât have any reliable hosting right now.
Iâve actually created a series of urls that can be used as an API to manage your queue. Everything is managed with chat commands which also means users donât have to open an additional tab just to submit a level. The entire list of commands can be found here: http://www.pokemonrby.com/smm/commands.txt

Due to all the new and different things this offers, please feel free to create a brand new topic to better âshowcaseâ these for users. Almost in a similar way this is created. https://community.nightdev.com/c/nightbot
Hey @rtainc thanks for your continued work for the community. Could you please make a customapi that tracks call of duty black ops 3 stats like kd and favorite lethal and most used specialist? That would be great because I am a big call of duty player and I canât seem to find one like that. Thanks in advance!
