FAQ

Do I need a Reddit app or OAuth?

No. One Scrapall API key header is enough for every Reddit endpoint below.

Can I search all of Reddit or one subreddit?

Both. Use the search endpoint for site-wide queries and the subreddit listings endpoint to read one community.

How do I pay and get my API key?

Open the Buy page, pick the Freelance plan and pay in USDT on TRC20 or ERC20. The key is shown once, right after the payment is confirmed on-chain.

How many credits does one call use?

The cost table on this page lists credits per call for each endpoint. The Freelance plan is $45 for 27,000 credits per 30 days.
