What you can build with the Reddit scraper API

The Reddit scraper API reads public Reddit data as JSON: posts from a subreddit, the comments of a post and an intent search that surfaces threads where people ask for or compare products. Useful for social listening and market research.

Listen to a community

Read the latest posts of a subreddit and keep the returned identifiers to avoid processing the same post twice.

GET /api/v1/social/reddit/subreddits/{subreddit}/posts

Find threads with buying intent

Use intent search to find discussions where people look for a solution like yours.

GET /api/v1/social/reddit/intent-search

Analyse a discussion

Read the comments of a post to understand objections, questions and sentiment.

GET /api/v1/social/reddit/posts/{id}/comments

How the Reddit scraper API works

  1. 1

    Choose the operation

    Subreddit posts take a subreddit name; comments take a post ID; intent search takes a query.

  2. 2

    Call the endpoint

    For example GET /api/v1/social/reddit/subreddits/{subreddit}/posts.

  3. 3

    Use sorting and pagination

    Use the documented sorting and pagination inputs and keep the returned identifiers.

Try the Reddit Scraper API with your own account

New accounts receive 200 credits after verification, enough for about 200 calls to "Reddit subreddit posts".

Using Reddit Scraper

Choose subreddit posts or comments for a post ID.

Use the documented sorting and pagination inputs and preserve returned identifiers.

Removed or deleted posts and comments may have no text. This is different from a provider failure.

Before integrating
