Tried to upvote a reddit submission but received a 404 HTTP response












-1















I'm new to coding and I suck. I hope to find help here.



I was playing around with the praw module for reddit and couldn't get the simple function upvote() to work.



Here's my code:



import praw

r = praw.Reddit(client_id='**************',
client_secret='**************',
user_agent='**************',
username='**************',
password='***********')

r.submission('https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/9znyf2/today_is_my_18th_birthday_everyone/').upvote()




And here's the full error:



Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:Users*****Desktop*************************A.py", line 11, in <module>
r.submission('https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/9znyf2/today_is_my_18th_birthday_everyone/').upvote()

PRAW is trying to use that URL as a post ID, not as a URL. url is the second argument to reddit.submission(), so you'll need to use it as a named argument (r.submission(url='https://www.reddit.com/...')) to get the submission. After you do that everything should work as expected.
