Threads User Posts Scraper

Apify actor that collects public posts from Threads profiles using the same GraphQL + HTML token strategy as the reference scripts (helper.py, main.py, extract_output.py).

Behavior

• Requests start without a proxy (direct to threads.com).
• If Threads blocks or rejects traffic, the actor switches to an Apify datacenter proxy and keeps using that tier for the rest of the run (until another escalation is needed).
• If datacenter is unavailable or still blocked, it switches to an Apify residential proxy and performs up to three attempts per profile with rotated residential sessions.
• Posts are pushed to the dataset as they are parsed (live saving).

Input

Field taken_at uses the actor container’s local timezone (same as the original script’s default).

Output

Dataset items match the reference output.json shape: profile_pic_url, username, id, pk, code, caption, engagement fields, audio, medias, tags, mentions, taken_at, url, etc.

Local run

pip install-r requirements.txt
exportAPIFY_LOCAL_STORAGE_DIR=./storage
# Put INPUT.json in storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json
python -m src
