The Reddit connector sends ZMP Customer and Prospect audiences to Reddit Ads so you can target them in campaigns.
Configure this destination before you can use it. If this is not yet configured, you will be prompted to authenticate in Settings > Connections. If you have more than one account configured for this destination, you’ll be prompted to select it before you see a list of audiences.
The selected audience can be an existing Reddit custom audience, or you can create a new audience during setup if you need one.
Configuring the Connection
1. Navigate to Settings > Integrations > Connections. Click on Create Connection.
2. On the Select Connection Type page, click on the Reddit Ads tile. Click on Next.
3. Once selected, the fields will resolve to a sign-in button for you to authenticate your Reddit account via SSO. Clicking the button opens a pop-up to sign in.
4. When prompted, make sure you accept all permissions so you can send data from ZMP to Reddit Ads.
5. Once authenticated, all the Reddit ad accounts attached to your username will appear in a table. Check the boxes of the accounts you want to use on the current ZMP instance.
6. After clicking Save on the Reddit Connection page, you’ll be redirected to the Connections page, where you can see the active status of your connection.
You can add multiple accounts to a single Connection, but you can create only one Connection per partner connector.
For all OAuth connectors—including Reddit—sync uses the person who initially connected the account. If that person loses ad-account access, changes their password, or their OAuth token expires or is revoked, all exports using that connector will stop until the connection is reauthenticated.
Sync using Audience Exports
The process for exporting an audience to a partner destination is standardized across all connectors.
1. From Segments & Lists, locate the row of the audience you wish to export. Click on the action menu (three dots) on the far right and select Export.
2. Within the Connect Audience panel that appears on the right, select Reddit from the list of Available Connectors and click on Next.
3. From the list that appears, select the desired Reddit account. If you have more than one Reddit account configured, select the appropriate account from the account drop-down list.
4. Choose the Reddit audience you want to export to from the available audience list. You can select an existing Reddit custom audience or create a new audience within the export flow if you need one.
5. Once you select an audience, the available export options appear:
-
Add more people – Add people from the ZMP audience to the selected Reddit audience.
-
Remove these people – Remove people in the ZMP audience from the selected Reddit audience.
You can also use Set Attributes to configure any additional audience attributes available for the Reddit export.
6. Click on Connect to export the audience. Turn the Automate connection toggle on and configure the available schedule options if you want to keep the Reddit audience updated automatically.
After you export an audience from ZMP, audience size updates in Reddit Ads can take several hours, and full processing can take up to 36 hours. This wait time is determined by Reddit.
Reddit audiences generally need enough matched members to be usable for targeting (Reddit typically requires an estimated upper size of at least 1,000). Smaller matched audiences may not be targetable until more members are added.
Replace is not supported. You can add people to a Reddit audience or remove people from it. You cannot overwrite a destination audience with the people in your ZMP audience.
Expansion exports use a hashed email (email_md5) from the person’s profile — either generated from their email, or from a hashed email already stored in external IDs. Profiles with neither are skipped during matching, which can lead to empty or low-match results.
For refreshable audiences like Prospect Segments, you can choose to export the audience one time or regularly. You cannot schedule a recurring export for Prospect List, Matched List, or Lookalike because you cannot modify existing items.
ZMP cannot execute Audience Export against inactive segments (archived/error).
