Response
dataobjectThe post record, or null when nothing was found.
data.authorstringAuthor username, without the u/ prefix. Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
data.bodystringThe post's own body text (selftext), as Markdown. Empty for link posts, which carry no body. Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.

data.idstringReddit post ID (base-36, without the t3_ prefix). Populated whenever the provider has data for the entity.
data.imagestringPreview image for the post, when Reddit generated one. Reddit signs this URL and it is time-limited, so fetch it promptly rather than storing it; the query string carries the signature and must be kept intact. Empty when the post has no preview image.
data.isArchivedbooleanTrue when Reddit has archived the thread, which blocks new comments and votes. Archiving is a per-community setting, so an old thread is not necessarily archived. Absent when the source that served this request does not report it, which means unknown rather than false.

data.numCommentsintegerTotal number of comments on the post.

It costs from $0.50 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. You fund one USD wallet, each call draws it down, and a failed request costs $0.

Fetch a single Reddit post by URL, including its full body text, score, comment count, upvote ratio, and subreddit, as normalized JSON. The response is normalized JSON with the same envelope every AnyAPI endpoint returns, so parsing a second endpoint is a change of URL and nothing else.

Over the last 30 days, 100.0% of Reddit post calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 1.4 seconds across 4,890 measured calls. These are AnyAPI's own measurements of traffic through the gateway, recomputed continuously, not a published service-level target.
