Hello, I’m wondering if with n8n we can connect to Quora or Reddit ? I’m having trouble understanding this node Http request, can we connect to any Web 2.0 site ?
It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.
- n8n version:
- Database (default: SQLite):
- n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
- Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
- Operating system:

You would generally want to use the HTTP Request node to interact with an http based API (sometimes called REST, whether it is RESTful or not).
For Reddit:
- There is a Node Built into n8n for it.
- If you want/need something the Reddit node doesn’t support, you can use the
HTTP Requestnode directly with their API- See: Reddit API Docs
- See: Reddit API Reference
For Quora:
- There isn’t any official API.
- No node either
If you need to query information from those sites, I like to use https://apify.com/.
They esentially make a lot of needed “services” like accessing website that don’t have APIs “scraping”, available as an API call.
If the platform doesn’t provide you the tools, you are probably looking into a scraping solution to extract the information you need.
Thanks for the website
