Reddit Ads – Setup

Introduction

This guide explains how to setup Reddit Ads for use with Cyclr, as well as how to install a Reddit Ads Connector.

Note: You must have a verified Reddit Ads account in order to use this Connector.

The Reddit Ads Connector uses OAuth 2.0 authentication – you will be required to create the corresponding developer app within your Reddit Ads account.

See Reddit’s documentation for more details.
