Add a Reddit Account in Sprinklr

Updated 

In this guide, we'll walk you through how to link a Reddit account in Sprinklr's account settings.

There are two types of Reddit accounts that can be added to Sprinklr. In Account Settings, you'll specify that you're adding a Reddit User Account, which can be used to monitor and engage with Direct Messages, or a Subreddit Account. Subreddits can be linked in Sprinklr if you are the moderator of the account.

Internal Note: Reddit can be enabled for customers using the following Client Property-Enable Reddit (redditEnabled) Enablement of this capability requires additional setup.

Note:

A social account can only be added to a single Workspace. To add the same account in different workspaces, admins are required to share that social account with other workspaces. For more information, see Sharing an Account

The Reddit account addition will be based on the OAuth method.

Ensure that you are logged into the same account you want to add to Sprinklr.
