# Monitor brand mentions on Reddit

**Use case:** 

Searches all of Reddit for a brand or product name and returns matching posts with subreddit, author, upvotes and permalink, so a marketing or support team can see what people are saying without checking every subreddit by hand. Monitor mode is on, so a scheduled run returns only posts not seen before.

## Input

```json
{
  "searchQuery": "Notion app",
  "sortBy": "new",
  "timeframe": "all",
  "maxPosts": 25,
  "includeComments": false,
  "maxCommentsPerPost": 100,
  "maxDepth": 3,
  "monitorMode": true
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "id": {
    "label": "ID",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "subreddit": {
    "label": "Subreddit",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "title": {
    "label": "Title",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "author": {
    "label": "Author",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "score": {
    "label": "Score",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "num_comments": {
    "label": "Comments",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "created_utc": {
    "label": "Created",
    "format": "number"
  },
  "url": {
    "label": "URL",
    "format": "string"
  }
}
```

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/themineworks/reddit-search-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
