Frequently Asked Questions

Is it legal to scrape Reddit?

Yes — scraping public Reddit data is legal. Posts, comments, subreddit pages and user profiles you can see without logging in are public information. For the full breakdown, read our legal guide.

Do I need a Reddit account to use the scraper?

No login required. The Reddit Scraper works on public data only — no account sync, no cookies, no Chrome extension. Just paste URLs and run.

What data does the Reddit Scraper extract?

40+ data points per result. You get post titles, body text, scores, comment counts, authors, comment threads with depth and parent IDs, user karma and trophies, subreddit descriptions, rules, weekly active users and more — covering posts, comments, users and subreddits in a single run.

How fast is the Reddit Scraper?

Up to 280 results per minute. Run multiple subreddits, posts and searches in parallel to scale up further.

What inputs does the scraper accept?

Any mix of Reddit URLs. Drop in subreddit URLs, post URLs, user profile URLs or Reddit search URLs — the scraper auto-detects the type and extracts accordingly. No need to split runs by input type.

Does it scrape comments and replies?

Yes — full comment threads, replies included. Each comment comes with its body, author, score, depth, parent ID and post ID, so you can rebuild the complete conversation tree.

I scraped a subreddit but got no comments — why?

Feed post URLs, not subreddit URLs. A subreddit or search URL returns the post list only — comments come from post URLs (.../comments/...), which are already in your export's URL column. Relaunch from those to get the full comment tree.

Where do the comments appear in my export?

Separate rows, one per comment — not a JSON column. Everything shares one flat file tagged by the TYPE column: filter TYPE=comment and read the BODY column, with AUTHOR, SCORE, DEPTH and PARENT ID to rebuild the thread.

Can I scrape Reddit user profiles?

Yes. Paste a user URL (e.g. reddit.com/user/username) and you'll get post karma, comment karma, trophies, active subreddits, moderated subreddits and account creation date.

How many posts or comments can I scrape per run?

No hard limit. Scrape thousands of posts and comments in a single run — pagination is handled automatically. Scale by running multiple URLs in parallel or scheduling recurring runs.

Can I schedule recurring Reddit scrapes?

Yes — schedule runs hourly, daily or weekly. Perfect for monitoring subreddits, tracking new posts on keywords or building a continuously updated dataset.

What export formats are supported?

CSV, JSON and direct push to Google Sheets — plus the lobstr.io API for piping data into your own stack. Connect Google Sheets once and every run lands in your spreadsheet automatically.
