# List comments

> Retrieve a post and its available nested comment tree.

<Warning>
  Reddit connections are temporarily unavailable while Automate.ax awaits
  Reddit's approval for commercial Data API access. You can connect a Reddit
  account after the integration is approved and enabled.
</Warning>

`reddit.listComments` retrieve a post and its available nested comment tree.

```ts automations/reddit-list-comments.automation.ts theme={null}
import { automation } from "automate.ax"
import { reddit } from "automate.ax/reddit"

export default automation("List comments", () => {
  const result = reddit.listComments({
    postId: "t3_abc123",
    sort: "top",
    limit: 100,
  })
})
```

## Inputs

Set the post fullname. `sort` defaults to `confidence`; `limit` defaults to 100 and is capped at 500. Optional `depth` is capped at 10. Compatible signals are accepted. Use the optional second argument `{ account }` to select a named Reddit binding.

## Output

Returns `{ post, comments }`. Comments are flattened in Reddit display order. Reddit may return `more` placeholders when it truncates a large tree; this action omits those unavailable descendants.
