pmaw VS PRAW

Oh a whole lot of them. Pushshift was large enough to have its own libraries ( https://github.com/mattpodolak/pmaw ) so the first step will be to recreate the API 1:1 and get tools like reddit search and reveddit working again.

There are two libraries for making Pushshift requests: PMAW, and RedditWarp.

If I understand correctly, libraries like pmaw combine the PushShift API with the Reddit API? Is that correct?..

Move to PMAW which is also broken but maintained and the dev says they'll have it fixed this week.

if you're using python you can check out the PSAW or PMAW wrappers

I also followed this tutorial on getting comment ids from submission ids but it outputs no data as well

I'm... not sure I understand the question? PRAW still works just fine for "personal use" of the reddit API.

Thank you for pointing out. So there is no need then for the access token? Only with the refresh token is enough? To be honest I took a look at it but I did not expect that to be under authentication as strictly speaking, the user already made the authentication. Also I took a look at the code at https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/blob/master/praw/reddit.py and I did not get a hint whether was possible to pass it or not. I am just saying this to let you know I tried to search for the answer before asking. Again thank you for the help.

To get the relevant IDs, you can use something like PRAW to query the subreddit for the top 1000 posts for example.

Huge thanks to the contributors to PRAW, which is the Python package that does all the heavy lifting relating to Reddit's API that I need for this script.

However, in practice duplicate items were yielded with these smaller numbers. So I increased the limit briefly to 250 in October 2016, and then increased it finally to 301 in December 2016 in order to resolve https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/issues/673. That issue provides an explanation for how 301 came to be.

Why? You gotta be ready for any status code. Even 777.
