Reddit User Posts API questions
How do I get the posts a Reddit user has made?
Send the username. You get their most recent submissions, up to 10 per call, each with title, body, subreddit, score, comment count and link; send the nextCursor back as cursor for older ones.
Can I see which subreddits a user posts in?
Yes. Each post carries its subreddit, so counting them shows where a user is active, which helps when vetting a creator or finding communities to join.
How do I use the Reddit User Posts API?
Send a POST request to https://api.bridgly.app/reddit/list-user-posts with username in the JSON body and your API key in the Authorization header. In the TypeScript SDK, call client.reddit.listUserPosts(). AI agents connected to Bridgly over MCP can call the reddit_list_user_posts tool.
How much does the Reddit User Posts API cost?
Costs 1 credit per request. Credits cost $2.00 per 1,000 on pay-as-you-go and as low as $1.00 per 1,000 at volume. New accounts on a business email start with 100 free credits, and failed requests are never charged.
