KickNet 0.1.2

Kick .NET SDK

Typed .NET SDK for the KICK public API, with first-class app-auth sessions, user-auth sessions, request builders, and webhook verification.

Default auth model

The default SDK path is now:

1. configure client_id and client_secret
2. create an app session
3. use session.Client for normal API calls

using Kick;

var session = KickSdk.CreateAppSession(new KickAppCredentials
{
    ClientId = "<client-id>",
    ClientSecret = "<client-secret>",
});

var kick = session.Client;
var channels = await kick.Channels.GetAsync(new GetChannelsRequest
{
    Slugs = ["xqc"],
});

The session acquires an app access token in memory and reuses it automatically.

User auth

User auth remains available, but it is a separate path:

var auth = KickSdk.CreateUserAuthClient(new KickUserAuthOptions
{
    ClientId = "<client-id>",
    ClientSecret = "<client-secret>",
    RedirectUri = "https://localhost/callback",
    DefaultScopes = [KickScopes.UserRead, KickScopes.ChannelRead],
});

var login = auth.CreateLoginRequest();
// redirect browser to login.AuthorizationUri
// then exchange the returned code:
// var session = await auth.ExchangeAuthorizationCodeAsync(code, login.CodeVerifier);

Experimental VODs and clips

VOD/video and clip helpers are available behind an explicit opt-in:

using Kick;

var kick = new KickClient(options: new KickClientOptions
{
    EnableExperimentalWebsiteApi = true,
});

var videos = await kick.Experimental.Videos.GetByChannelAsync("xqc");
var latestVideos = await kick.Experimental.Videos.GetLatestByChannelAsync("xqc");
var clips = await kick.Experimental.Clips.GetByChannelAsync(new GetChannelWebsiteClipsRequest
{
    Channel = "xqc",
    Limit = 25,
});

These clients use undocumented Kick website endpoints, not the official api.kick.com/public/... API. They may be blocked, changed, rate-limited, or removed by Kick without notice. Prefer official public API clients when Kick publishes stable VOD or clip endpoints.

Legacy token providers

IKickAccessTokenProvider, StaticAccessTokenProvider, and DelegateAccessTokenProvider remain available for advanced/manual scenarios. They are no longer the recommended default startup path.
