Explore Triggers and Actions
Create a Reddit post
Creates a new text or link post on a specified, existing Reddit subreddit, optionally applying a flair. Immediately publishes publicly visible content — confirm subreddit, title, and body with the user before executing. Posts may be silently removed post-submission by automoderator or subreddit rules (errors: SUBMIT_VALIDATION_BODY_BLACKLISTED_STRING, POST_GUIDANCE_VALIDATION_FAILED); verify visibility via the returned permalink. Rapid consecutive calls trigger RATELIMIT errors with cooldown hints.

Tool to retrieve a listing of Reddit posts sorted by the specified criteria (hot, new, top, rising, controversial, best). Use when you need to get posts from the Reddit front page or all of Reddit with a specific sort order. Supports pagination and time filtering for top and controversial sorts. For new controversial-post workflows, prefer GET_CONTROVERSIAL; this action retains controversial support for backward compatibility. Use GET_RANDOM for random posts.
ActionTry it
Get subreddit rules
Fetch the explicit posting rules for a subreddit to ensure compliance before posting or commenting. Use when you need to verify content meets community guidelines or explain subreddit requirements to users.
ActionTry it
Get top posts from subreddit (Deprecated)

List subreddit post flairs
List available link/post flairs for a subreddit (including flair_template_id) so posts can satisfy flair-required validation. Use when you need to discover valid flair IDs before creating a post in a subreddit that requires flair. Note: Reddit may return empty or deny access if the authenticated user cannot set link flair and is not a moderator.
ActionTry it
Post a comment
Posts a comment on Reddit, replying to an existing submission (post) or another comment. Fails if the target thread is locked, archived, or restricted — verify thread state beforehand. Rapid successive calls trigger Reddit RATELIMIT errors with explicit cooldown hints (e.g., 'take a break for 9 minutes'); honor the specified wait before retrying. A successful API response does not guarantee public visibility — automod or spam filters may silently remove the comment. Publishes immediately and publicly; confirm target and text before executing.
ActionTry it
Retrieve Comments for a Post
Retrieves all comments for a Reddit post given its base-36 article ID. Response is a two-element listings array: post metadata in `listings[0]`; comments in `listings[1].data.children` with text at each `[].data.body` and nested replies under each comment's `replies` field. Replies require recursive traversal to capture full discussion. Optionally control ordering (`sort`), how many comments are returned (`limit`), and how deep the reply tree is expanded (`depth`) before Reddit collapses remaining replies into `more` placeholders. Large, locked, or archived threads may still return truncated trees regardless of `depth`. Filter out comments where `body` is `[deleted]` or `[removed]`; use `parent_id` to reconstruct conversation flow. No date/time-range filter — compare `created_utc` against a UTC cutoff to filter by date.
ActionTry it
Retrieve posts from subreddit
Retrieves posts from a specified, publicly accessible subreddit. Responses nest post data under `data.children[].data`; inspect the structure before parsing. Pagination uses a `data.after` cursor; deduplicate across pages by post `id`. No built-in date filtering; compare `created_utc` (Unix seconds, UTC) client-side. Rate limit: ~1–2 requests/second; back off on HTTP 429.
ActionTry it
Retrieve specific comment or post
Retrieves detailed information for a single Reddit comment or post using its fullname. Returns only the specified item, not surrounding thread context; use REDDIT_RETRIEVE_POST_COMMENTS for full discussion retrieval. Deleted, removed, or quarantined items may return empty or partial payloads.
ActionTry it
Search across subreddits
Searches Reddit for posts using a query. Results are nested under `data.children[i].data` (kind `t3` for posts); a `posts` array may also appear, so inspect the actual response path. Optional `time_filter` restricts results to a time period (hour/day/week/month/year/all). Optional `result_type` must include `link`; non-post types in a mixed search do not appear in the streamlined `posts` field. Empty `children` is a valid no-results outcome. Key post fields: `score`, `num_comments`, `created_utc`, `permalink`. Rate limit: ~1-2 requests/sec; HTTP 429 indicates throttling.
ActionTry it
Search subreddits
Tool to search subreddits by title and description. Use when you need to find subreddits matching a specific topic or keyword. Returns a paginated listing of subreddits with their details including subscribers, descriptions, and other metadata.
