On the Pipedream Reddit integration page — One SDK, thousands of API integrations
— it seems users are required to manually provide Reddit developer client_id and client_secret before the OAuth flow works.
I’ve checked for an option to preconfigure or set a global OAuth client (like we can with Slack), but Reddit doesn’t seem to support that in the Pipedream setup.
Is there any workaround or method to use our existing Reddit developer app credentials, so that clients don’t need to create and configure their own Reddit app manually?
Can I handle the Reddit OAuth flow from my own backend, then pass the resulting tokens to Pipedream to obtain an auth_key — so that I can later call Pipedream Actions using that key?
I couldn’t find any documentation for this — only information on how to retrieve credential details, not on how to set them when we already have the user’s credentials from our own OAuth flow.
I think Reddit only requires a developer account to generate the OAuth flow. It seems Pipedream hasn’t set that up for Reddit yet — unlike Slack and other integrations where OAuth is preconfigured on Pipedream’s end. Also, it looks like there’s no option to use a custom OAuth token for Reddit either.
