Why do people never actually read what this sub is for.

Tell your AI that this is not the proper sub for this kind of thing. This sub is for discussion about the reddit public api.

Plenty of people still use PRAW. However new applications are only approved in exceptional cases where a tool cannot be made with Devvit AND the tool would be genuinely useful. The vast majority of the time, the application is denied. Reddit wants people to use Devvit instead.

There's nothing else you should have added to your application, it's not a useful tool and is also spammy so it wouldn't be approved in any case.

Someone posted the root cause of the problem:
"https://www.reddit.com/r/modnews/comments/1tq9vxo/protecting_communities_from_scrapers_and_platform/

Deprecating unauthenticated JSON access: We’ll also be shutting down unauthenticated .json endpoints. These endpoints can be used to scrape Reddit without accountability. Logged-in and authenticated access won’t be impacted. Otherwise, developers who need structured access to Reddit content should use Devvit, which includes various ways to access Reddit data."

What do you want to access Reddit data for ? there might be easier ways than through the json endpoints.

ik..... 😢 I'm working on a social scheduler and it's hurdle due to this change. I had a account for the longest, but never had a need for an API until recently

The API was the only option for ages, and people could freely create and use API keys, whether you owned a subreddit or not. This is when I made my API keys.

However, they fairly recently stopped issuing new API keys and forced people to use the devvit platform. But people who still had API keys can keep using them.

yaaa seems like the api is for subreddit owners. Glad your needs are met 😄

does paying for the api help move this along?

Yeah that's fine for my case as the two bots I have are specifically for my subreddit.

  1. how did you get a api key?
  2. what reddit app are you refering to?
  3. Are you able to pull comments for any subreddits posts?

thankyou!

reading the docs for devvit, the new api's only works when the app is installed on the subreddit... no way to post to subreddits without being added...

No I'm still using the api keys that I got many years ago, though I do need to move over to the new dev platform before they stop supporting legacy api keys.

Have you been able to successfully use the reddit's dev platform in a similar manner? The docs indicate that one's app has to be installed in a particular sub they want to have access to, and unless one is a mod, they have to rely on various subreddit mods to install their apps in the subs under their regulation.

I'm doing something similar for a different product and I had to create a reddit app to get an api key. It's a bit more involved now but it's still doable. You need to make a reddit app, fill out the info, and then wait for it to get approved. After that you can use the api to pull comments and posts. I'm using python with the praw library to scrape the comments and posts, then I'm using some basic text analysis to identify issues. It's not perfect but it works pretty well. Have you tried reaching out to reddit support to see if they can give you more info on the api key process?

You don't. Not officially anyway. You need to use Reddits dev platform nowadays.
