detail.loadingPreview
Automate your Reddit research to uncover trending topics, high-engagement posts, and top comments. This workflow allows you to effortlessly monitor multiple topics, filter by relevance and popularity, and extract valuable insights for content creation, market research, or community management.
About This Workflow
This robust n8n workflow provides an automated solution for deep-diving into Reddit's vast content landscape. Start by defining a list of topics, and the workflow will systematically search Reddit for posts related to each. It intelligently filters these posts based on upvote count, post type (links only), and even excludes specific domains. The system then meticulously deduplicates results, prioritizing the most engaged versions of shared links. Finally, for each highly relevant post, it fetches and analyzes comments, extracting the most popular ones to give you a comprehensive understanding of community sentiment and discussion points. Perfect for staying ahead of trends and gathering actionable insights.
Key Features
- Dynamic Topic Monitoring: Input a list of topics to automatically search Reddit for relevant posts.
- Advanced Post Filtering: Instantly filter posts by upvotes (e.g., >100), post type (e.g., link-only), and exclude specific URLs and internal Reddit links.
- Intelligent Deduplication: Automatically remove duplicate links while retaining the version with the highest engagement.
- Top Comment Extraction: Fetch and analyze comments for high-engagement posts, identifying the most upvoted and relevant discussions (excluding deleted comments).
- Structured Data Output: Consolidate key post and comment data into a clean, easy-to-use format for further analysis.
How To Use
- Input Your Topics: In the node preceding "Split Topics into Items" (not shown in snippet, but typically a "Start" or "Set" node), provide your list of topics as a multi-line string. Assign this to a variable named
Topics. - Configure Reddit Credentials: Ensure your n8n instance has a valid Reddit API credential configured.
- Customize Search Keywords (Crucial): In the "Search Posts" node, modify the
keywordparameter. To search for each of your dynamic topics (as intended by the "Split Topics" node), change the hardcodedmetavalue to={{ $json.Topic }}. - Adjust Filtering Criteria: In the "Upvotes Requirement Filtering" node, update the
rightValuefor upvotes, or add/modify conditions (e.g.,post_hint,url) to fine-tune your post selection criteria. - Refine Comment Extraction: If needed, customize the JavaScript in the "Extract Top Comments" node to change the number of comments extracted (e.g., top 30) or modify the logic for filtering and flattening comment trees.
- Connect to Your Destination: After "Extract Top Comments", connect to your desired destination (e.g., Google Sheets, a database, email, CRM) to store, analyze, or act on the extracted post and comment data.
