IMPLEMENTATION

Deploy this event source

Connect the user's Reddit account, configure the source, and choose the webhook where your backend receives events.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const deployed = await pd.triggers.deploy({
  id: "reddit-new-private-message",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    reddit: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    timer: { "intervalSeconds": 900 },
  },
  webhookUrl: "https://example.com/webhooks/reddit",
})

console.log(deployed.id)

MCP exposes on-demand actions. Event sources are deployed through the Connect SDK or API because they continue listening after the initial request.

SCHEMA

Configuration

These inputs define which events the source watches. Dynamic options are loaded from the connected account.

Every event is sent to the HTTP endpoint you choose when you deploy the source — after each poll.
