}How to Create Your Reddit Scraper
Get your Reddit scraper API up and running in minutes with these simple steps.
Sign up and create a parser
Create your free Parseium account and start a new parser project. Choose Reddit as your target website and get 1000 free credits to get started.
Configure target URL and data fields
Paste an example Reddit page URL (subreddit, post, or user profile) and use our AI-powered schema builder to define the data fields you want to extract—posts, comments, scores, timestamps, authors, and more.
Test your extraction
Run a test extraction to verify your parser is capturing the right data. Our AI will help you refine selectors and validate the output matches your schema.
Get your API key
Generate an API key from your dashboard. This key authenticates your requests and tracks your usage across all your parsers.
Integrate with your code
Use our simple REST API to start extracting Reddit data. Send URLs via the scrape endpoint or HTML via the parse endpoint and get structured JSON back instantly.
How to Use the Reddit API
Simple REST API with two endpoints: scrape any Reddit URL or parse HTML you already have.
Scrape Endpoint
Provide a Reddit URL and we'll fetch and parse it for you.
const response = await fetch(`https://api.parseium.com/v1/scrape/${parserId}`, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'X-API-Key': process.env.PARSEIUM_API_KEY,
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
body: JSON.stringify({
url: 'https://example.com/reddit-scraper-api-page',
}),
});
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);Parse Endpoint
Upload Reddit HTML content directly for faster parsing.
TypeScript Example
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('html', htmlFile); // File or Blob
const response = await fetch(`https://api.parseium.com/v1/parse/${parserId}`, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'X-API-Key': process.env.PARSEIUM_API_KEY,
},
