Threads API — frequently asked questions

Do I need a Threads developer account?

No. Create a free TikHub account, generate an API key, and call REST endpoints directly — no Threads developer application, app review, or OAuth.

What Threads data can I extract?

Public posts, user profiles, reply threads, and search results.

How much does the Threads API cost?

Pay-as-you-go from $0.001 per request, with automatic daily volume discounts down to $0.0005 at 30,000+ requests/day. New accounts get $0.05 free credit (~50 requests) — no credit card required.

Is using a Threads API like this legal?

TikHub returns publicly available data — the same content anyone can see without logging in. US courts (hiQ v. LinkedIn) have held that scraping public data is not a CFAA violation. That said, Threads's Terms of Service restrict automated access, so account or IP blocks are a real operational risk; TikHub manages that infrastructure for you. You are responsible for how you use, store, and process the data you retrieve.

One key, every platform

The Threads API shares its key and JSON format with 15 other platforms — adding Instagram or Douyin is a one-line change.
