How does this automation work?
Bardeen's automation playbook for Reddit and OpenAI offers a powerful way to distill the essence of a Reddit post and archive it for easy reference or content marketing strategies. By leveraging OpenAI's summarization capabilities, you can quickly capture the most important points of a conversation or a post and have it neatly organized in your Airtable base. It's ideal for content creators, marketers, and researchers looking to harness the vast information on Reddit.
Here's how this workflow simplifies Reddit data sourcing and summarization:
- Step 1: Scrape Reddit post: First, the Scraper integration is used to extract data from the Reddit post you're viewing in your browser. The Scraper is configured with a custom template to ensure that all relevant information is captured.
- Step 2: Summarize with OpenAI: The content scraped from Reddit is then processed by OpenAI, which generates a concise summary. You have the option to provide additional context to refine the summary.
- Step 3: Save to Airtable: Finally, the summarized data, along with the author's information, is added to your specified Airtable base. Airtable acts as a powerful, flexible database for your summarized content.

Let’s set it up!
Step 1: Create an Airtable
The first step is to create an Airtable with all the fields you want to save from a Reddit post.
Bardeen will extract information from the Reddit post and get the name, summary, date, subreddit name, title, author link, upvotes, post link and more.
Step 2: Install the extension and integrate Airtable and Reddit data scraper
You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Airtable.

Click on the playbook card, and the setup flow will start. Bardeen will ask you to specify an Airtable.
After you choose the database, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in Airtable.
The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will scrape for you. On the right side, specify the fields in Airtable that you want to associate with the information on the left. If you don’t want a piece of information, leave that field empty, and it will be skipped. That’s it!
Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Airtable. This will save you time in the future. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook.
