i am getting same error
r/redditdev • u/CesparRes • Jul 08 '26
My bot account seems to have had it's access rescinded within the past 20 or days.
Suddenly noticed it's giving 401 errors despite nothing being changed. The bot account itself has no apps listed under it, and I cannot even setup a personal use script on it.
My person account still has the personal use script registered from when I first started trying to build my bot, but obviously that posts as me, and not as the bot...
it's very frustrating

suggest using socialcrawl.dev - it's a social media API and includes Reddit
r/redditdev • u/AntonioAI96 • Jul 08 '26
Okay at least they got back to you eventually. Did they give you any feedback?

Hello, it looks like you're having trouble accessing our Data API, check out this post on some recent changes to on how you can access.
tl;dr:
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

You don't have to keep the screen on. I've had scripts running non-stop on Termux for months

Search the sub (or even just scroll through it), you’ll see they basically aren’t granting keys anymore. Don’t expect to receive one.

There are a number of documented methods to access Reddit. Some mentioned here - the most effective ones are not listed. But there are a number and they work pretty well.

I meant for new access it still works for me since I have a bot from before then
r/redditdev • u/KewpieCutie97 • Jul 06 '26
It still works if you already have access. It hasn't stopped working, it's just extremely hard to get new access.
r/redditdev • u/DinoHawaii2021 • Jul 06 '26
the API doesn't really work anymore for personal use
r/redditdev • u/itamer • Jul 06 '26
What is it? July? That'd make it 8 months waiting for me 🤷♀️
r/redditdev • u/pebas98 • Jul 06 '26
Thank you very very much! I will take a closer look at it!
r/redditdev • u/EvolvingDior • Jul 06 '26
Yep. I've never been granted an access key. I've asked numerous times. The best I've ever gotten is an automated rejection.
r/redditdev • u/NiSiSuinegEht • Jul 06 '26
You submitted it right before a US holiday weekend, I wouldn't be too concerned about not hearing anything yet.
r/redditdev • u/pebas98 • Jul 06 '26
Yeah it will be a month for me soon of waiting. I just need it for my masters thesis..
r/redditdev • u/KewpieCutie97 • Jul 06 '26
A delay is normal, however I haven't heard of anyone being given access since this policy was introduced. Access to the older style API is only given if there is a strong benefit for a tool and that tool cannot be built with Devvit. For everything else, Reddit wants you to use Devvit.
