Copy for LLM
The Threads Reply Management API allows you to read and manage replies to users’ own Threads.

Permissions

The Threads Reply Management API requires an appropriate access token and permissions based on the node you are targeting. While you are testing, you can generate tokens and grant your app permissions by using the Graph API Explorer.
  • threads_basic — Required for making any calls to all Threads API endpoints.
  • threads_manage_replies — Required for making POST calls to reply endpoints.
  • threads_read_replies — Required for making GET calls to reply endpoints.

Rate limits

Threads profiles are limited to 1,000 API-published replies within a 24-hour moving period. You can retrieve a profile’s current Threads replies rate limit usage with the GET /{threads-user-id}/threads_publishing_limit endpoint.
Note: This endpoint requires the threads_basic, threads_content_publish, and threads_manage_replies permissions.
