Kick API endpoint

Kick Channel Profile API

Returns a Kick (kick.com) channel's public profile and, when it is live, its current broadcast: username, bio, verification and affiliate flags, follower count, linked social handles, profile and banner images, recent categories, and a live object with title, viewers, start time, language, tags and categories (omitted when the channel is offline). slug is the channel slug from its kick.com address, case-insensitive; a full kick.com URL is also accepted. Playable stream URLs are never returned. An unknown channel returns not found.

How this endpoint behaves

Notable response behavior:

live is present only while the channel is broadcasting. It carries title, viewers, started_at (RFC 3339, UTC), language, mature, tags and categories.
followers is a number even though Kick sends it as a string on this call.
socials holds the handles exactly as the channel stores them (usernames or path fragments, not URLs). Empty handles are omitted.
banned is true for a banned channel that Kick still resolves.
Playable stream and playback URLs are never returned. Only public data is read.
An unknown channel returns 404; a malformed slug returns 400.
