Reddit Sample

The Reddit sample demonstrates how to interact with Reddit using AutoKitteh's Reddit integration.

The sample includes two separate workflows:

1. Create Post - Create a reddit post
2. Add a comment - Add a comment on a reddit post

API details:

• Reddit API
• PRAW (Python Reddit API Wrapper)

How It Works

• Create a new post in a specified subreddit
• Add a comment to an existing post by using the post id from the webhook

Cloud Usage

1. Initialize your Reddit connection through the UI
2. Copy the webhook trigger's URL (for the Trigger Workflows section below):
   • Hover over the trigger's (i) icon for the webhook you want to use
   • Click the copy icon next to the webhook URL for your selected trigger
   • (Detailed instructions here)
3. Update the SUBREDDIT project variable with your target subreddit name (without the "r/" prefix)

Trigger Workflows

Create a Post

curl -X POST "${WEBHOOK_URL}" \
  -d "title=Hello from AutoKitteh" \
  -d "content=This is a test post created with AutoKitteh" \
  -d "flair=<FLAIR_ID>"

• Replace WEBHOOK_URL with the URL of create_post_webhook webhook in the triggers section.
• provide a flair ID, a title and content.

Add a Comment

curl -X POST "${WEBHOOK_URL}" \
  -d "post_id=<POST_ID>" \
  -d "comment=Great post!"

• Replace WEBHOOK_URL with the URL of add_comment_webhook webhook in the triggers section.
• Replace <POST_ID> with the ID of the Reddit post you want to comment on, and provide the comment.
