Reddit Media & Images Scraper
Pull every image, video, GIF and gallery URL from any subreddit or post, one clean record per media item, ready for ML datasets and content curation.
| 15 fields per media item | All Reddit coverage | JSON / CSV / Excel output formats | Updated 2026-06-28 |
What you get
One record per media item, not per post, so a single gallery post expands into one row per image. Every direct image, video, GIF and gallery image is captured, with the source post attached for attribution. Use it to build training datasets, curate content, mirror media or audit what a community is posting.
- mediaUrl: the direct URL of the image, video, GIF or gallery image
- mediaType: image, video, gif or gallery
- sourceDomain: the host serving the media (i.redd.it, v.redd.it, imgur.com and so on)
- width: pixel width when the source exposes it
- height: pixel height when the source exposes it
- postId: the Reddit post id the media came from
- postTitle: the title of the source post
- subreddit: the community the post is in
- author: the poster's username
- score: net upvotes on the source post
- numComments: comment count on the source post
- permalink: the canonical reddit.com link to the source post
- isNsfw: whether the source post is marked NSFW
- createdAt: when the source post was submitted
- observedAt: when this media item was last seen by the scraper
Two ways to scrape
| Mode | Input | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Subreddit feeds | subreddits | Sweep hot/new/top/rising media from communities |
| Post URLs | postUrls | Pull every media item from exact posts you already have links to |
Combine them in one run. maxItems caps the total media items; mediaTypes narrows to the kinds you want; includeExternal toggles off-Reddit hosts.
Who is it for

Frequently Asked Questions
What media does it pull from Reddit? Direct images and GIFs from i.redd.it, videos from v.redd.it (with the highest mp4 fallback when available), and every image inside a multi-image gallery. Posts with no media are skipped, not returned as errors.
Does it include media hosted off Reddit?
Yes, by default. With includeExternal enabled it captures links to imgur, gfycat, redgifs and streamable. Turn it off to keep only Reddit-hosted media on i.redd.it and v.redd.it.
How is maxItems counted?
It counts media items, not posts. A single gallery post with ten images counts as ten toward your maxItems, since the scraper emits one record per image.
Can I limit it to only images or only videos?
Yes. Set mediaTypes to any subset of image, video, gif and gallery. Leave all four selected to capture everything a community posts.
What happens with a post that fails to load?
A post that fails to load is written as a record with an error field instead of being silently dropped. Posts that simply have no media are skipped without an error.
