Getting started

Authentication

Every request requires a bearer token in the Authorization header. Keys are issued by your marketplace at subscription time.

Sending the bearer

curl https://api.redditintel.dev/v1/subreddits/python \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>"

Requests without a valid bearer receive 401 UNAUTHORIZED. Keys are scoped to the customer who provisioned them and inherit that tier's rate limits and feature gates.

Where to get a key

Reddit Intel is sold exclusively through API marketplaces. Pick the one your billing already lives on:

  • API.marketStandard option, USD billing, instant key issuance.
  • Zyla API HubSubscription-based pricing, monthly resets.
  • ApyHubAtom-based pricing, pay-as-you-go style.
  • RapidAPIComing soon.

Storing the key

  • Treat the bearer as a secret. Never commit it to source control or expose it client-side.
  • Read it from an environment variable at process start, not from a config file checked into git.
  • If a key is compromised, rotate it on your marketplace dashboard. The old key is invalidated within ~60 seconds.
