Reading subreddits and posting as the person.

Reading subreddits and posting as the person.

Connect accounts

Each person connects their own Reddit account in the Gateway, once, and every app that asks uses it. Apps never see the tokens. How connecting works

The redirect URI to register, with your Gateway's address (like apps.example.com):

https://<your gateway>/connect/reddit/callback

A web app on Reddit's apps page. Not yet tried against a live connect.

  1. Open reddit.com and create an OAuth app (also called a client or an integration).
  2. Add the redirect URI above.
  3. Copy the client ID and client secret. The secret is often shown only once.

Add it to your Gateway. It asks for the client ID and secret:

everyapp provider add reddit

Or add it in Manage workspace → Providers.

Use it in an app

capabilities: {
  reddit: { access: "read", scopes: ["posts.read"], why: "What the app does with it." },
},

Apps ask for these scope sets:

SetAllowsProvider scopes
identityReddit account (who you are)identity
posts.readSubreddits and posts (read)identity, read
posts.writePosts (read, submit and flair)identity, read, submit, flair

Check it worked: everyapp provider show reddit shows the client as set. Then open the account menu → Connected accounts → Connect Reddit.
