Endpoint Playground
Returns one page of Kick's game and activity categories (Just Chatting, Grand Theft Auto V, ...) ordered by current viewers: id, name, slug, parent category, tags, viewers, mature flag, banner and kick.com link. category restricts to one top-level category by slug from kick-categories (a parent Kick adds later is accepted too). page is 1 to 20 and limit is 1 to 32 (default 24) because Kick silently caps both; total is the size of the whole catalog (over 18,000) while reachable is how many entries these limits can reach, so use kick-search-categories to find a category outside the first pages.
26 Oct 2026: 10 subcategories; 11 fields had a value in every checked item and 1 varied between items.
Sample value profiles: viewers: 10,465 to 75,055, median 26,239; banner_url: files.kick.com; mature: true in 1 of 10.
