Dashboard Week Day 1: Video Games – Twitch API

This post was originally published on The Data School blog between 2018 and July 2025, before our program was renamed to MIP’s Analytics Career Accelerator. References throughout this article to “The Data School” or “DS” all refer to what is now MIP’s Analytics Career Accelerator. The program, its people, and its commitment to launching outstanding analytics careers remain the same – just under a new name.

Hi everyone! In today’s blog I’ll be showing you my first dashboard of the week.

We had to connect to the Twitch API in Alteryx and build a Dashboard in Tableau

So first I created an account in Twitch and from there get the Token to connect to the API in Alteryx.

In my Alteryx Workflow I created an output with data for every endpoint, so the tables were normalized, and it was going to be easier to work with in Tableau by relating them.

After building my dashboard I quickly made it look 1000x better (hopefully) by adding a background I created in Figma.com
