Threads API - OAuth Exchange Token doesn't seem to work
1

I am able to get Short Lived tokens for real users but am unable to exchange them for Long Lived tokens. When I send a request to the /access_token endpoint with grant_type=th_exchange_token it only works for test users. When trying with real users, I get the following error: "message": "Unsupported request - method type: get".

Has anyone else experienced different behavior between real users and test users when trying to exchange the short lived token for a long lived token (My app has already been approved through app review) ? If so, how have you resolved this issue? Thanks

Update: It seems that the /me endpoint also returns the same error message for real users (when using their short lived token).

Hi Yuval, in case you already got your app approved we have the same problem

I just got mine approved and immediately tested it with a non test-user and received the same error. With the added test-users it works perfectly fine.

Do you still encounter this problem or did you find any solution meanwhile?
