GET
/v1/reddit/profile/posts

Returns the posts one account has submitted, newest first, with the body at ext.selftext, score, comment count, upvote ratio, flair, media and ext.subreddit.

Use it to read one person's submissions across communities. An account with no posts and one that does not exist both return an empty list, so call profile to tell them apart.

10 credits per call.

Paginates by cursor: see Pagination.

Authorization

apiKey
x-api-key<token>

Your key from the dashboard. It starts with isk_.

Query Parameters

handle*string

Reddit username without the u/ prefix. Case-insensitive.

sort?string

Sort order for the account's submissions. top defaults to the all-time window; pass timeframe to narrow it.

Value in

  • "hot"
  • "new"
  • "top"
timeframe?string

Only return posts from this window. Applied on sort=top. Omitted sort=top is treated as timeframe=all so the documented call is not an empty page.

Value in

  • "all"
  • "year"
  • "month"
  • "week"
  • "day"
  • "hour"
cursor?string

Cursor to get more results. Get 'cursor' from the previous response.

since?string

Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off the page, and the page that reaches one ends the walk: next_cursor is not returned and pagination.stopped_at is since. Sending it sets the newest-first sort shown in this endpoint's sort parameter (any other sort value is a free 400). The page still costs what a page costs, so you pay for the pages you walk and no more. A row with no date is kept.

until?string

Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept.

dry_run?"1"

Set to 1 to get the price of this call without making it: data.dry_run carries credits_min and credits_max. Nothing is charged.

Value in

  • "1"
