Use the Reddit monitoring endpoint to track Reddit posts that match your keywords. Discover community discussions, brand mentions, and competitor activity across subreddits.

​
How it works

  1. Create a saved search via POST /v1/searches/reddit/posts with your keywords
  2. Trigify checks Reddit on your configured frequency (DAILY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY, or QUARTERLY; HOURLY is available on Enterprise and Custom plans only)
  3. New posts matching your keywords appear in your search results
  4. Optionally trigger workflows on new posts for alerts, enrichment, or integrations

​

Preview your filters

Before committing to a saved search, POST the exact same body to POST /v1/searches/reddit/posts/preview to see a sample of matching posts. Useful for validating keyword combinations before spending a credit. 
curl -X POST https://api.trigify.io/v1/searches/reddit/posts/preview \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Rust perf discussions",
    "keywords": ["rust", "golang"],
    "keywords_and": ["performance"],
    "time_frame": "past-24h",
    "max_results": 10
  }'
Response shape mirrors GET /v1/searches/{id}/results plus a meta block with count, total_available, and monitoring_type.
Preview is free — no credit charged. Once you’re happy, POST the same body to /v1/searches/reddit/posts to commit the saved search.
