Reddit API

Reddit API Integration

The Reddit API module allows administrators to integrate Reddit into Stackposts. Once configured, it enables scheduling, posting, subreddit interaction, and account automation via OAuth-secured access.

⚙️ Configuration Fields

To enable the Reddit API, complete the following configuration:

• Status

  • Enable: Activates Reddit API integration.

  • Disable: Turns it off.

• Client ID
  The identifier assigned to your app when created on Reddit.
  Example: fwx77PiaJJ1ax3E...

• Client Secret
  The secret key used to authenticate your app securely.
  Example: vb5umMmYGjRfRY...

• Scopes
  Comma-separated list of permissions your app is requesting. Example:

  save, modposts, identity, edit, flair, history, modconfig, modflair,
modlog, modwiki, mysubreddits, privatemessages, read, report, submit


For more details on available scopes, refer to the Reddit OAuth2 Scopes documentation.

✅ Notes

• Ensure your Reddit app is not in developer-only mode when moving to production.

• Stackposts will use OAuth to allow users to authorize their Reddit accounts without revealing login credentials.

• Reddit has strict rate limits; avoid automation that exceeds their posting thresholds.
