Threads API

Create Replies

Permissions

To reply to a thread, you must meet one of the following permission requirements:

  • You are the owner of the root thread post
  • You have either the threads_keyword_search or the threads_manage_mentions permission.

Respond to Replies

Step 1: Use the reply_to_id parameter to reply to a specific reply under the root post.

Example Request

curl -X POST \
  -F "media_type=<MEDIA_TYPE>" \
  -F "text=<TEXT>" \
  -F "reply_to_id=<THREADS_ID>" \
  -F "access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
"https://graph.threads.net/v1.0/me/threads"

Example Response

{
 "id": "1234567890"
}

Step 2: Use the POST /{threads-user-id}/threads_publish endpoint to publish the reply container ID returned in the previous step.

It is recommended to wait on average 30 seconds before publishing a Threads media container to give our server enough time to fully process the upload. See the media container status endpoint for more details.

Parameters

  • creation_id — Identifier of the Threads media container created from the /threads endpoint.

Example Request

curl -i -X POST \ 
  -F "creation_id=<MEDIA_CONTAINER_ID>" \
  -F "access_token=<ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
"https://graph.threads.net/v1.0/<THREADS_USER_ID>/threads_publish"

Example Response

{
  "id": "1234567" // Threads Reply Media ID
}
