Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need a Reddit API key or OAuth developer app? No. The Actor runs zero-login in the cloud without Reddit API keys, OAuth tokens, or rate-limit quotas.

Q: Are extracted Reddit image and video links permanent? Yes. Reddit's default preview URLs contain temporary tokens that expire within hours. Our engine converts every image and gallery asset into a permanent CDN URL (https://i.redd.it/...).

Q: How are nested comment threads structured in the dataset? When scrapeComments: true or when scraping post URLs, the engine extracts both root comments (depth: 0, parentId: null) and deep reply trees (depth: 1, 2, 3+) with parentId and postId foreign keys.

Q: How does Pay-Per-Event pricing work for Reddit extraction? Standard runs cost $1.00 per 1,000 items ($0.001/item), with volume discounts down to $0.50 per 1,000 items on higher Apify plan tiers.

Key Capabilities

All 5 Native Search Dimensions: The official Reddit API restricts search primarily to basic post endpoints. UnitBytes unlocks all 5 search tabs—including Subreddits, Users, Media, and Comments—in one unified API.
No Commercial Approval Gate: Official API access requires commercial licensing agreements and rigorous developer verification. UnitBytes operates instantly with zero credentials.
Permanent HD Media CDN Links: Standard API queries return media URLs that expire in hours. UnitBytes normalizes all media assets to permanent CDN URLs so your reports and dashboards never break.
Unbeatable Unit Economics: At $0.50–$1.00 per 1,000 results with no monthly commitments, you can run daily brand monitoring at 90% lower cost than official enterprise licensing.

Pricing: $0.001 / item (Pay-Per-Event — $0.001 result scraped (volume tiers from $0.0005))

Key Capabilities

Skip Weeks of Waiting & Strict Approval: Reddit requires commercial applications, legal reviews, and enterprise agreements to access comment streams. UnitBytes lets you pull full threads immediately.
No Expensive Monthly Contracts: The official API requires enterprise commitments starting at $1,000+/mo. UnitBytes charges from $0.50 per 1,000 comments on a pure pay-per-result basis.
Full Depth & Nested Hierarchy: While standard API endpoints limit comment depth and require pagination loops, UnitBytes harvests the complete conversational hierarchy (depth 0, 1, 2, 3+) in a single run.
Zero Formatting Headaches: Reddit returns deeply nested JSON trees that complicate spreadsheet analysis. UnitBytes flattens discussions into clean, relational rows that open directly in Excel or Google Sheets.

}

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need a Reddit account or API key? No. You can run this actor immediately with zero API keys, developer tokens, or Reddit accounts.

Q: How do I open the results in Excel or Google Sheets? Once your run finishes, click Export on the Apify dataset tab and choose CSV or Excel. The data is pre-flattened so every column loads cleanly with zero formatting errors.

Q: Can I reconstruct who replied to whom? Yes. Every comment record has depth, id, parentId, and postId. Top-level comments have depth: 0 and parentId: null. Nested replies (depth: 1, 2, 3...) set parentId directly to the id of the comment they are replying to.

Q: How many comments can I extract from a post? You can extract anywhere from 1 up to 5,000 comments and nested replies per post by adjusting maxCommentsPerPost.
