Proxy configuration

proxyConfiguration

Optional

Leave this on. A proxy is now required for runs on the Apify platform: Reddit refuses Apify's shared platform egress IP outright, with a 403 on first contact before any challenge is issued, so a run with the proxy switched off fails every request (measured 2026-09-16 — the identical run through Apify Proxy finished 28/28 requests in the same minute). Switching it off is only useful when you run this actor locally from a clean IP. Left at the default below it goes out through Apify's RESIDENTIAL pool, which works. Reddit's modern search page (www.reddit.com/search/) answers well-reputed IPs with a lightweight, solvable challenge instead of a hard block — this actor solves it automatically, no browser needed. IP reputation is still mixed within any shared pool, including Apify's RESIDENTIAL group, so the actor retires a session and retries with a fresh IP whenever a request comes back blocked. For the most consistent results (especially at high volume), supply your own proxy (a paid mobile or premium residential provider works best) via 'Custom proxies' instead. See README.md for details.
