How can you export your saved posts and comments into external tools (Notion, spreadsheets)?

A practical answer page built from the knowledge base source.

Reddit's native "Save" feature bookmarks posts and comments within the platform, but it provides no built-in export functionality. Users who want to organize saved content in external tools like Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, or Obsidian must use third-party solutions to extract and transfer that data. For Notion specifically, a Chrome extension published by a community developer allows users to trigger an OAuth-authenticated export of all saved Reddit posts directly into a Notion database, populating fields for the post title, subreddit, URL, and post body. The setup requires connecting both a Reddit OAuth application and a Notion integration token, but the process has been simplified by browser extension wrappers that handle the credential exchange through guided prompts rather than raw API calls. A similar script-based solution is available on GitHub using Python, PRAW, and the Notion SDK, which is more flexible but requires technical comfort. For spreadsheet export, the most common approach is using PRAW through a Python script to retrieve all saved items from your account and write them to a CSV file. The Reddit API exposes saved items through the `/user/{username}/saved` endpoint, and a short script can paginate through all saved content — which Reddit caps at 1,000 items for the saved category — and export the title, subreddit, URL, score, and creation date for each. Tools like Redact.dev, primarily known for mass deletion, also provide a viewing and filtering interface for your post history that can be used as a basis for manual or automated export. For ongoing automation — new saves automatically added to a Notion database or Google Sheet — tools like Zapier and Make (formerly Integromat) offer Reddit connectors that can trigger workflows when new items are saved or posted, routing the data to the destination tool of choice. This setup requires more initial configuration but eliminates the need for manual re-exports as the saved items list grows over time.
