Twitch
Twitch OIDC-flavored OAuth2. No PKCE; user info comes from the decoded id token — no userinfo call.
Configure
python
from better_auth import BetterAuth
from better_auth.oauth.providers_ext import Twitch
auth = BetterAuth(
secret=...,
social_providers={
"twitch": Twitch(client_id="…", client_secret="…"),
},
)Or name-keyed (no import):
python
auth = BetterAuth(
secret=...,
social_providers={
"twitch": {"client_id": "…", "client_secret": "…"},
},
)Options
| Field | Type | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
client_id | str | list[str] | required | |
client_secret | str | required | |
claims | list[str] | ["email", "email_verified", "preferred_username", "picture"] | Extra OIDC id-token claims requested via the claims authorize param — Twitch is the only provider that sends one. |
All shared ProviderConfig options apply.
Notes
- Default scopes:
user:read:email openid. - Register
{base_url}{base_path}/callback/twitchas an OAuth redirect URL in the Twitch developer console. - User info is the decoded (unverified, per TS
decodeJwt)id_token— there is no network userinfo call, and no JWKS-backed direct id-token sign-in. - Display name comes from
preferred_username.
