Can I use my existing app for accessing the Thread API?
1

We have a business verified app to use the graph APIs for sharing posts to Facebook pages.

The documentation here https://developers.facebook.com/docs/threads/get-started says that we need to create an app with the Threads use case. Is there a way to add the threads use case to the exiting app so we don't have to maintain different apps for interacting with Meta products?

As far as I understood and based on some tests I've done, you MUST create a new app.

Hello, did you experience this issue when having the OAUTH flow:

No application data was given: There was a problem getting data for an application. The application may not be valid or there is a temporary glitch. Please try again later.

I am currently experiencing this and having troubles to continue.

Me too, I even create another app one with verified business portfolio and another with no business portfolio both give same result like following:

{
  "error_message": "No application data was given: There was a problem getting data for an application. The application may not be valid or there is a temporary glitch. Please try again later.",
  "error_code": 1349026

You need to search for the separate threads_app_id and threads_app_secret they are below the normal FB ones.

At least this has fixed my problem.

Did searching for the separate threads_app_id and threads_app_secret allow you to use the same app, or do you still have a separate one for Threads and Facebook
