Hi everyone! We’ve made some changes to Pushshift based on feedback. Here are the updates:

  1. The access token is now a cookie for the search tool. This means tokens are no longer visible from the search tool’s UI. Users that need direct access to the token for programmatic use should instead go through a separate flow that’s outlined at .
  2. We’ve implemented a system that allows for expired tokens to be refreshed through an API endpoint also detailed at the above guide. The search tool will automatically refresh expired tokens and moderators running scripts for moderation can use this refresh functionality to get longer than 24h access.

Please let us know if you have any questions!
