Reddit user API 4 credits

Fetch one Reddit user's public profile: username, account age, karma, follower count, and description, the vetting call before quoting a loud voice or engaging one. Add up to two sections, comments, posts, subreddits, at 2 credits each: recent activity for the first two, active communities for the third.

The base call costs 4 credits. Name the user without the u/ prefix or paste the profile URL.

Parameters#

ParamRequiredTypeDescription
usernameyesstringReddit username without the u/ prefix, e.g. 'spez'. Full profile URLs are accepted and cleaned.
sectionsnoarrayExtra activity sections, 2 credits each (max 2 per call).
freshnessnostringrecent (default) serves cached data from the last few hours when available; realtime forces a live fetch for +2 credits (refunded if we fall back to cached data). Trial keys are cached-only and reject realtime with TRIAL_CAP_EXCEEDED; paying upgrades this same key to unlock it.
max_creditsnointegerSpend ceiling for this one call. The call is rejected (nothing charged) if its quote exceeds this. Only the quote is ever reserved, never this ceiling.

Returns a reddit_user envelope. Full field list: /docs/fields#reddit_user.

Pricing#

reddit_get_user costs 4 credits base per call (surcharges for optional sections, cursor pages, and batches are in the full reference). Every key starts with a free budget of 200 credits per IP per day, no account, no card; past that, credits are $2.00 per 1,000 with no subscription required.

FAQ#

Can I find users by topic?

Yes, with reddit_search type=users; this endpoint needs an exact username.

What exactly do sections return?

comments and posts return the first page of that user's recent activity; subreddits returns where they're active.

Why vet a user at all?

Account age and karma separate an established community voice from a throwaway before you cite or engage them.
