Provider limits and scope

  • 500 characters
  • One media item or a 2-20 item carousel
  • Reply chains
  • Public media URL and approved Meta app access required

Set up Threads in three checks.

  1. 1

    Configure the Threads app credentials and exact OAuth redirect URI.

  2. 2

    Make stored media reachable through a public HTTPS URL that Meta can fetch.

  3. 3

    Connect the account and test image, video, or carousel publishing from production-like hosting.

Known limits

What can still block a post.

  • Meta fetches media server-side; localhost, private URLs, and inaccessible object storage will fail.
  • Video processing and account permissions can still fail after a successful OAuth connection.
  • Local development needs a public tunnel for callbacks and media.

Account requirement: An approved Meta app and public HTTPS media hosting for media posts.

Verification: Verify that Meta can fetch the exact production media URL before scheduling media-heavy work.

Use the current callback address, permissions, and media setup.

Social network developer pages change. The OpenPost guide lists the settings and checks you need now.
