How can I read Reddit posts with an API?

Send GET /v1/reddit/search?query=coffee with Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY. Each result includes its original URL and available scores and comment counts. Use the website for one verified trial before buying credit.

Run it live

Calls run only when you press Run. Opening this page does not spend credit.

Your results will appear here. Choose a platform and action, then press Run.

Real API calls require verification for one trial, or a signed-in account with prepaid credit.

From code

curl

curl "https://posttodata.com/v1/reddit/search?query=coffee&limit=5" -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Python

import requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://posttodata.com/v1/reddit/search",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"},
    params={"query": "coffee", "limit": 5},
)
for item in r.json()["data"]["items"]:
    print(item["url"], item.get("text") or item.get("title"))

From your AI

Claude and ChatGPT clients that support OAuth can sign in without pasting a key. Follow the client setup guide. The command below is the API-key option for Claude Code.

Add the MCP server once

claude mcp add --transport http posttodata https://posttodata.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Then ask

“Search Reddit for opinions about pour-over coffee and cite the sources.”

The model calls search_posts with platform reddit.

Good to know

All six supported actions use the same response format.
Search currently lists at $0.003 per successful call; check prices.json for current prices.
An API key and prepaid balance are required for direct API calls.
