RapidAPI Overview

Overview

RedCrawler is available on RapidAPI as red-crawler1. All requests go through the RapidAPI gateway:

https://red-crawler1.p.rapidapi.com

Authentication

Every request requires two headers:

Header	Value
`X-RapidAPI-Key`	Your RapidAPI key (from your RapidAPI dashboard)
`X-RapidAPI-Host`	`red-crawler1.p.rapidapi.com`

You do not need Reddit credentials for read-only scraping. RedCrawler manages the underlying Reddit OAuth tokens, proxies, and rate limits on your behalf.

Quick example

curl -X GET "https://red-crawler1.p.rapidapi.com/api/v1/feed/entries?subreddit=test&limit=10" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Key: YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Host: red-crawler1.p.rapidapi.com"

Response format

All /api/v1/* and /api/v2/* endpoints wrap their response in a consistent envelope:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "...": "endpoint-specific payload"
  },
  "error": null,
  "meta": null,
  "timestamp": "2026-04-28T12:00:00Z"
}

On error:

{
  "success": false,
  "data": null,
  "error": "Subreddit not found",
  "meta": null,
  "timestamp": "2026-04-28T12:00:00Z"
}

Rate limits are tied to your RapidAPI subscription tier. Each request is routed through dedicated proxy infrastructure with automatic failover, so you do not need to handle Reddit's per-IP limits yourself. If you hit your quota, the gateway returns 429 Too Many Requests.
