Revoke credits

Takes unused sub-reward credits away from a viewer. Only unused credits are revocable - credits already spent on a message are gone. Asking for more than the viewer has available revokes nothing and answers 400 insufficient_credits with the actual available count. Requires viewers:manage.

POST/viewers/{user}/credits/revoke

Authorization

AuthorizationBearer token (tp_live_...) · headerrequired

A TipPage API key, created in Dashboard → Settings → Developer.

Path parameters

userstringrequired

The viewer's Twitch user id, login, or display name (names are case-insensitive; URL-encode names with special characters). All-digit input is tried as a user id first. Prefer the user id in automation - it survives renames and can never be ambiguous.
