Replace Reddit RSS in n8n before November 13

Description and use

Replace the RSS node in n8n with an HTTP Request to ProLevelMax to keep fetching Reddit posts after RSS is disabled on 13 Nov 2026.

Problem

Reddit will shut down its RSS feeds on 13 Nov 2026, causing n8n workflows that use the RSS Read node to stop returning items silently.

Outcome

The workflow continues to fetch Reddit posts after RSS shutdown by replacing the RSS Read node with an HTTP Request node to ProLevelMax, mapping JSON fields to the original RSS schema, and optionally retrieving comments.

Workflow

• Create a ProLevelMax account and obtain an API key.
• Add an HTTP Request node with Method POST, URL https://prolevelmax.com/v1/run, Header Authorization: Bearer <your key>, and Body JSON specifying scraper "procli_reddit_d" and input parameters (query, search_type, sort, time_range, need_format).
• Add a Split Out node on the items field to iterate over returned posts.
• Map post fields (postTitle, permalink, score, commentCount, createdAt) to the original RSS fields (title, link, date).
• (Optional) Add a second HTTP Request node with scraper "procli_reddit_b" and input {post_id:"t3_<id>", sort_type:"TOP"} to fetch comments for a post.
• Use the CSV download link if only a file is needed.
• Set a daily spend limit on the API key to control costs.
• Use the provided Python script on GitHub for a quick alternative.

Evidence

Reddit is switching off its RSS feeds on 13 November 2026. If an n8n workflow reads a subreddit or a Reddit search through the RSS Read node, it will stop returning items that day, usually without an error you would notice.
