What It Does

Enter a search query and retrieve the latest posts from Threads. This scraper gathers the most recent posts related to your query, returning approximately 10-20 posts per search.

Why Use It?

Ideal for media monitoring - track mentions of an individual, company, product, or any keyword of your choice. Run it on a schedule to keep an eye on new posts as they appear.


Input Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
searchQueriesarrayYesOne or more terms to search. Each term returns its own results, tagged with search_query.
sortstringNorecent (newest first, default) or top (most relevant).
searchTypestringNoposts (keyword search, default) or hashtag (posts under a tag).
dateFrom / dateTostringNoYYYY-MM-DD. Keep only posts within the date window (filters the returned results by timestamp).
lastDaysintegerNoKeep only posts from the last N days.
monitorModebooleanNoReturn only posts not seen in previous runs. Ideal for scheduled monitoring.
proxyConfigurationobjectNoOptional proxy settings. Residential proxies help avoid IP rate-limiting on larger or frequent runs.

Troubleshooting

"No search results found"

  • The query may genuinely have no recent results — try a broader term.
  • Threads may be rate-limiting the IP. Enable residential proxies via proxyConfiguration, or space out your runs.

Limitations

  • Returns approximately 10-20 of the most recent posts per search (Threads only exposes one page of results to logged-out visitors). For continuous coverage, run the scraper on a schedule and collect new posts over time.
