Reddit Social: Reddit closes its public Data API by March 2027
- Deadline
- January 12, 2027
- Affected
- All report types
- What to do
- No action is needed now. Improvado has asked Reddit about continued access for the connector and will update this entry when Reddit answers. If Reddit offers no supported path, the connector stops loading new data once Reddit removes its access, as early as January 12, 2027 and in March 2027 at the latest.
Reddit is closing its public Data API, which the Reddit Social connector uses for all of its reports. Reddit asks existing apps to register and move to its Developer Platform (Reddit's announcement).
Key dates
- January 12, 2027: Reddit starts removing API access for apps that have not registered or engaged with its Developer Platform team.
- March 2027: public Data API access closes for all remaining apps.
What Improvado is doing
We have asked Reddit's Developer Platform team how the connector can keep its access, and we will update this entry when Reddit answers. Until access is removed, the connector loads data as usual. Data already loaded stays in your destination.
Reddit's announcement concerns its public Data API. The Reddit Ads connector uses the separate Reddit Ads API.
