FAQ

Do I need a Threads or Meta API key?

No. Public posts only, no developer account required.

How many posts per handle?

Typically 4 to 10 of the most recent public posts per profile. Deep pagination is not available to any logged-out scraper.

Why are some media fields null?

Threads renders different post types (text-only, image, video, carousel) and not every post has media. imageUrl and videoUrl are null when the post is text-only.

What if I get a profile_unavailable error?

Switch to residential proxy if you are not already on one, or wait a few minutes - the flag clears with IP rotation.

Can I scrape replies and threads?

The first page of the public profile is the ceiling for logged-out access. Reply trees require login.

Can I export to CSV / Google Sheets / Excel?

Yes - JSON / CSV / Excel / XML / HTML all supported, plus native integrations.
