requireFieldsarray
Optional; omit it and routing is unchanged, with the cheapest source serving. Name the output fields this request must be able to return, for example `weeklyActiveUsers` or `advertiserCategory`, and it is served only by a source that returns every one of them. Fields you do not name are still returned whenever the serving source has them. This can raise your price: when the cheapest source cannot return a named field, a dearer source serves, and you are quoted and charged its price. A named field can still be absent on a subreddit that genuinely lacks it. Naming a combination that no single source returns together is refused as invalid input, with no charge.

About the Reddit Subreddit details API

It costs from $0.45 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Over the last 30 days, 100.0% of Reddit subreddit details calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 1.4 seconds across 182 measured calls.
