Description

Get one subreddit's profile: title, description, subscriber count, creation date, NSFW flag, full rules, moderators and posting settings (which post types are allowed, whether posting is restricted). Costs 2 credits. Tip: read rules before drafting a post; if rules is null the data came from a fallback source that cannot see them, not because the subreddit has none.

Parameters

Subreddit name, r/name or URL, e.g. SaaS.
