Reddit API Integration for Posting and Analytics
How GoGlobal connects to the Reddit API to power posting, analytics, and account management features.
Work through the sections below to complete setup and checks, then use the top search to jump into related help docs when needed.
Overview
GoGlobal uses the official Reddit OAuth 2.0 API to interact with Reddit on your behalf. All API calls are made using your authorized access token, which means actions appear as coming from your account — not a bot account.
Permissions Requested
During the OAuth flow, GoGlobal requests the following Reddit permission scopes:
Permissions Requested
Complete the setup step by step
identity — read your username and karma
submit — create new posts and comments
read — read posts and comments in subreddits
history — read your post and comment history
- 1identity — read your username and karma
- 2submit — create new posts and comments
- 3read — read posts and comments in subreddits
- 4history — read your post and comment history
- 5account — read basic account information
GoGlobal never requests the 'modconfig', 'modflair', or 'modposts' scopes. We cannot modify subreddit settings or moderate content on your behalf.
Rate Limits
Reddit enforces a rate limit of 100 requests per minute per OAuth client. GoGlobal queues all API calls and distributes them evenly to stay within this limit. If you have multiple campaigns running simultaneously, posts are staggered automatically to avoid rate-limit errors.
Token Refresh
Reddit access tokens expire after 1 hour. GoGlobal automatically refreshes your token in the background using the stored refresh token. You will only need to re-authorize if you manually revoke access from your Reddit account settings or if the refresh token expires after 90 days of inactivity.
