Get comments on a Threads post

Full URL of the Threads post whose replies you want, for example https://www.threads.com/@zuck/post/DZpPDXbCeTt. Both threads.com and threads.net are accepted.

Ask the upstream for a stripped record. This is a real shape change, not just less whitespace: a trimmed row carries only the id, text, shortcode, like count, timestamp and author, so media, reply count, share count, view count, topic tag, pinned flag and quoted post all come back null. Same 1 credit either way, so send it only when the text and the like count are all you need. Ignored when limit is above 25, because the deeper source has no trimmed mode.

How many replies to collect, 1 to 50. Leave it off, or send 25 or less, and nothing changes: you get the bundled window for exactly 1 credit. Above 25 the replies come from a deeper source and the call is metered at 1 credit per 5 replies actually returned, so a post with only 12 replies costs 3 credits however high you set this. Threads publishes only part of a large conversation without a login, so a post declaring a thousand replies will still return about 50.

Only rows published on or after this date: YYYY-MM-DD (midnight UTC) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Rows older than it are left off each page. This list is not in date order, so the walk does not stop at the date: keep following next_cursor, and each page costs what a page costs even when every row on it is filtered out. A row with no date is kept. published_after, start_date, from_date, publish_time (yesterday, this-week, this-month, last-3-months, last-6-months) and max_age_days are accepted and applied as since.

Only rows published on or before this date: YYYY-MM-DD (that whole UTC day is included) or an ISO 8601 timestamp. Newer rows are left off each page and the walk does not stop, so older pages follow. A row with no date is kept. published_before, end_date and to_date are accepted and applied as until.

Send no-cache to bypass the response cache and force a live fetch. Billed at the normal endpoint cost; the fresh result is written back to cache for the next caller. Only the no-cache directive triggers this. See the Response Schema guide for details.

Optional UUID that makes the request safely retriable. The key is reserved atomically per account before billing. A concurrent retry receives 409 IDEMPOTENCY_IN_PROGRESS with a Retry-After of 1 second while the original is young, growing to a quarter of the time it has been running (at most 30); a crashed reservation expires after 5 minutes. A replay keeps the cached payload immutable except for billing metadata: credits_used becomes 0, idempotent_replay becomes true, and credits_remaining is refreshed to the current balance. A known current balance appears in both the body and X-Credits-Remaining header; no balance row resolves to 0. On a transient lookup failure, body credits_remaining is null and X-Credits-Remaining is omitted. Completed outcomes expire after 24 hours. If the claim store is unavailable, the request fails closed before billing. GET endpoints do not combine idempotent replay with Server-Sent Events: use Accept: application/json when sending this header. The unsupported key-plus-SSE combination is rejected before billing.
