Get a Reddit User's Saved Posts and Comments

The posts and comments a Reddit account has saved. This is private data, Reddit only serves it to the account that owns it, so the request must carry that account's own session cookies (from POST /api/reddit/login) and :name must match the logged-in account. Querying it as any other account, or with no cookies, returns 403.

When to use this

Reach for this when you need to read back a Redditor's saved-for-later list, a bookmark sync tool, a personal research archive, or a workflow that acts on whatever the account has saved. It cannot be used to see another Redditor's saved items: Reddit never exposes that to anyone, including this API.

Mixed listing: posts AND comments

A Redditor can save either a post or a comment, so the response is one ordered items array (the exact order Reddit itself returns, which the after cursor tracks) with each item tagged kind: "post" or kind: "comment". A post item has the same shape as /api/reddit/posts; a comment item has the same shape as /api/reddit/user/:name/comments.

Response Fields

When after comes back empty

An empty cursor means there is no next page to ask for. It does not always mean you have every item: Reddit often stops serving a busy listing long before it runs out. Paging r/all on 2026-08-14 stopped after 400 posts covering about a minute of a feed that plainly holds more.

The response tells you which happened. When after is null it also carries listing_status, which reads complete, truncated or unknown. Only complete means you have everything; treat the other two as a partial answer and widen your search rather than stopping. The full field list and what to do about each answer is in Pagination depth.
