Reddit Profile Posts API
Scrape Reddit Profile Posts data with one API call. Returns the posts a Reddit account has submitted, newest first by default, up to 25 per page. Each row carries the title, the body at `ext.selftext`, the score, the comment count, the upvote ratio, the flair, Reddit's own content language, the author avatar, structured media at `content.media_urls` and the permalink. `ext.subreddit` is the field that matters most on this lane and is populated on every row: a person's submissions span communities by construction, so it is the only thing that says where each post landed. Paginate with `cursor` from the previous response's `pagination.next_cursor`. `post.engagement.shares` is null here, as on every Reddit list endpoint — the upstream sends a share-BUTTON count on this shape and that is a different metric from the crosspost count this field means, so it is not published. An account with no submissions returns an empty list and is refunded; an account that does not exist is indistinguishable from one with no posts on this upstream and returns the same empty list, so check `/v1/reddit/profile` when you need to tell them apart.
Last updated September 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team
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.
