FAQ

FAQ

Common questions about setup, data, and reliability.

The AI agent reads from Airtable where the question database is stored and from an internal prompt pool. It does not require external feeds. The workflow is designed to keep the source data centralized and consistent. Data is used to generate new discussion prompts and to ensure there are no duplicates. You can customize the Airtable bases and prompts to fit your niche.

Yes. You can configure the target subreddit and select the post type (text, image, or link) for each scheduled run. The AI agent uses these selections during the publish step, so you can tailor posts to different communities. Changes apply to future runs and can be updated in the schedule and post configuration. You retain full control over posting parameters.

The AI agent archives each posted discussion in Airtable and checks for previously posted prompts before generating new ones. This prevents duplicates across cycles and maintains a clean content history. If a new run would duplicate, the system can skip or adjust the prompt to ensure uniqueness. Overall, the approach provides a reliable guardrail against repetition.

If a post encounters an error, the agent logs the failure in Airtable and can retry according to the configured schedule. It will preserve the original post configuration to avoid inconsistent behavior. The status is visible in Airtable for auditing, and you can trigger a manual retry if needed.

Yes. Recurrence settings control how often the agent runs (e.g., daily, weekly). You can modify the cadence at any time from the Schedule configuration, and the AI agent will apply the new cadence from the next cycle onward.

Airtable is the primary data store for questions, prompts, and postings. The AI agent relies on Airtable to track and archive posts, but you can adapt the setup to work with compatible bases or alternative databases if needed. The workflow is designed to be flexible within Airtable-based configurations.

Security depends on how you configure access to Airtable and Reddit. Use scoped API tokens and least-privilege access for the services involved. The agent operates on behalf of you within your own accounts and adheres to standard security practices for data in transit and at rest. Regular reviews of permissions help maintain a secure setup.
