HOW IT WORKS

From API key to Threads data in four steps.

Run a sample below without a key.

  1. 01

    Get your API key

    Create a free account and copy your key. You start with 100 free credits; no card needed.

  2. 02

    Choose an endpoint

    Pick one of the 8 Threads endpoints and add its input, such as a search query.

  3. 03

    Send one request

    Call it with your key in the x-api-key header. ScrapeAtlas reads the public Threads data and retries when a read fails.

  4. 04

    Use the JSON

    Get structured JSON with a coverage status. Only successful requests use a credit.

TRY IT HERE / LIVE SAMPLE

Preparing the sample…

// Run this sample here — no API key needed.
const value = "nasa";
const url = new URL("/website/demo/threads",

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore the API reference

Threads API and scraping

What profile and post data does the Threads API provide?

Retrieve public profiles, account posts, the replies an account writes, individual posts and their replies. Search endpoints discover matching posts, topics and accounts, supplying structured data for creator discovery and conversation research.

Can I find Threads accounts by keyword through the API?

Yes. Search Users returns account identity, display names, profile pictures, verification, biography and follower counts for a keyword. Use a selected handle with Profile to build a creator research entry.

How do I scrape Threads posts from a public profile?

Use User Posts to retrieve a profile’s recent posts and continuation posts with canonical URLs. Select compact records when useful, or pass a post URL to Post Details for replies, related posts, ancestors and view information.

Threads: keyword search and conversations

Can the Threads search API find posts by keyword and date?

Yes. Search Posts supports keyword queries, ranked or recent ordering and inclusive UTC date filters. Search Topics suggests the Threads topics that match a term, and Search Users provides account discovery with names, biographies, profile pictures, verification and follower counts.

Can I retrieve Threads comments and conversation replies?

Yes. Post Comments returns public replies in page order, and Post Details provides the selected post together with reply, related-post and ancestor context. User Replies lists the replies an account writes, each with the post it answers. Use the structured records to assemble a conversation viewer.

Can I retrieve Threads post views and conversation context?

Post Details returns a public post with view count, replies, related posts and ancestor posts. Use these fields to display the post’s surrounding conversation alongside its content in a research view, or request the post alone when you only need its content and engagement counters.

API access and integration

How do I get a ScrapeAtlas API key and authenticate requests?

Create a ScrapeAtlas account and generate an API key in the dashboard. Send the key in the x-api-key request header when calling https://api.scrapeatlas.com. The API playground lets you enter an endpoint’s parameters and inspect its JSON response.

Can I call the scraping API from Python, JavaScript or the CLI?

Yes. Send authenticated HTTP requests from Python, JavaScript or another language that supports HTTP. The endpoint reference includes request examples and response fields. Use the ScrapeAtlas CLI for terminal workflows and pass the returned pagination values when requesting additional result pages.

Can I connect an AI assistant to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server?

Yes. Connect an MCP-compatible assistant to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server to discover and call the public platform tools with your ScrapeAtlas account. The agent reference also gives coding assistants a readable guide to the endpoints and their request schemas.
