Reddit oAuth

[Steven_McCord]

I am trying to pull in ads data from Reddit and I have my own oAuth application and have the entire flow working within PostMan, but I am wondering if Make.com HTTP OAuth just can’t handle the Reddit oAuth flow (even though they have a Reddit app).

I see this topic:

Request failed due to failure of previous request: Connecting 2 reddit with HTTP “Make an OAuth 2.0 request”?

I have finally found the solution to this (previous thread: How to create a connection to Reddit Using the "Make an OAuth 2.0 request"?) @Michaela I wanted to edit that thread with a link to this one so users see that I have a complete solution to connect to reddit via HTTP Oauth 2.0, but anyway to the solution: [image] Ensure to use the same redirect URI in your Reddit custom app setup. [image] In the ‘Custom headers’, an Authorization header needs to be created in this format: [image] N…

But that didn’t work for me, and I think that is using a different type of auth.

This is Reddit’s auth, I think it is failing on the redirect and pulling in the authorization code of the URL parameter and then requesting the access token.

OAuth2

I have this all working in PostMan pretty well at this point, was just trying to port over to Make.com. I noticed that we could also add additional scopes to the existing reddit oAuth, but it doesn’t have adsread in the list of scopes, and I am not sure the Reddit app can just make arbitrary API calls, which could also solve this problem.

Thanks for the help!

I ended up switching to a custom app and now I have it running, but I could never really get it working with HTTP oAuth Module.
