Frequently asked questions

Which subreddits and posts can it scrape?

Any public subreddit, any public search, and any public post URL. Enter subreddit names without the `r/` prefix (for example `technology`, `worldnews`). Private and quarantined communities are not accessible.

Does it return the full post text?

Yes. With Fetch Full Post Text enabled, every self/text post carries its complete `selftext` body. Link posts have no body text, so `selftext` is empty for them and the external `url` is populated instead.

How many posts can I collect?

Set `maxItems` to whatever you need. Each subreddit feed and search returns up to 100 posts per page, and the total is capped by `maxItems` across all your sources.

Can I filter by time and sort order?

Yes. Choose `sort` (hot, new, top, rising, controversial) and a `timeFilter` (past hour, day, week, month, year, all). The time window applies to the top and controversial sorts and to search.

What happens with gallery and image posts?

Multi-image gallery posts return every image in `galleryImageUrls`. Single-image and link posts expose their image through `thumbnail` and `url`. A post that fails to load is written as a record with an `error` field instead of being silently dropped.
