Post › Comments

GET
/v1/threads/post/comments

Returns the replies Threads bundles with a post, usually about 20. Send limit above 25 (up to 50) to collect more first-level replies from a second source.

Use it to read the reaction under a post you already have the URL for. It is one window with no cursor. Set limit above 25 when the bundled window is not enough.

Metered: 20–200 credits. We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes.

Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free.

Authorization

apiKey
x-api-key<token>

Your key from the dashboard. It starts with isk_.

In: header

Query Parameters

url*string

Full URL of the Threads post whose replies you want, for example https://www.threads.com/@zuck/post/DZpPDXbCeTt. Both threads.com and threads.net are accepted.

trim?boolean

Ask for a stripped record. This is a real shape change, not just less whitespace: a trimmed row carries only the id, text, shortcode, like count, timestamp and author, so media, reply count, share count, view count, topic tag, pinned flag and quoted post all come back null. Ignored when limit is above 25, because the deeper source has no trimmed mode.

limit?integer

How many replies to collect, 1 to 50. Leave it off, or send 25 or less, and nothing changes: you get the bundled window. Threads publishes only part of a large conversation without a login, so a post declaring a thousand replies will still return about 50.

Range1 <= value <= 50

Subreddits › Search GET

Returns up to 25 communities matching a topic, each with the name at author.id, subscriber count, description and icon. include=details adds the creation date, weekly activity, rules and language. Use it to find which communities discuss a subject. Send include=details instead of one subreddit/details call per community, plus 1 per row filled, 26 at most. **Metered: 20–520 credits.** We reserve the ceiling when the call starts and charge what it actually used when it finishes. Re-running the exact same call within 1h is free. Paginates by `cursor` — see [Pagination](/docs/pagination).

Post GET

Returns one Threads post's text, like, reply and repost counts, every carousel slide or video URL, author, creation time, and topic tag at post.ext.topic_tag. Use it when you have a post URL and want that single post rather than a whole feed. If it is a quote post, the quoted post arrives at post.ext.quoted_post. **20 credits** per call. Re-running the exact same call within 6h is free.
