Fetches a public Twitch channel by username and returns it as clean JSON: id, handle, display name, description, created date, avatar and banner images, accent colour, partner/affiliate/staff flags, follower count, linked social media, whether the channel is live now (with the current stream — title, viewers, game, preview, tags — when it is), the most recent broadcast, and the first page of the channel’s videos (newest first — id, title, type, duration, views, game, thumbnail). Only publicly available data is returned.

I want to make an API call to /v1/twitch/profile. Here are the details:
Endpoint: GET https://api.scraperize.com/v1/twitch/profile
Description: Fetches a public Twitch channel by username and returns it as clean JSON: id, handle, display name, description, created date, avatar and banner images, accent colour, partner/affiliate/staff flags, follower count, linked social media, whether the channel is live now (with the current stream — title, viewers, game, preview, tags — when it is), the most recent broadcast, and the first page of the channel's videos (newest first — id, title, type, duration, views, game, thumbnail). Only publicly available data is returned.
Required Headers:
- x-api-key: Your API key
Parameters:
- handle (string) [required]: The Twitch username (channel handle), e.g. `ishowspeed`.
- cache_max_age (select): Optional. Return a cached result if one this age or newer exists — served for **0 credits** with `meta.cached=true` and `meta.cachedAt`. Otherwise a fresh scrape runs (**1 credit**) and refreshes the cache. Omit to always scrape fresh.
Example Response:
