Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Threads User Posts Scraper Collect public posts from Threads profiles without login. Enter one or more usernames and get post text, profile details, media links, timestamps, engagement metrics, hashtags, mentions, URLs, and public view counts when available. ### Input ```json { "usernames": ["zuck", "instagram"], "maxPosts": 100 } ```` No Threads login, password, or session cookie is required. Set `maxPosts` to `0` only when you want to request up to 10,000 currently available public posts per profile. ### Output Each dataset row is one public post. Profile details such as `username`, `display_name`, `bio`, `followers_count`, `profile_url`, and public profile links are included directly on each post row. Some fields may be `null` when Threads does not publicly show that value for a profile or post. ### Need Another Threads Workflow? - [Threads Scraper - Posts, Profiles & Search](https://apify.com/futurizerush/meta-threads-scraper?fpr=rush): collect public posts, search keywords, discover profiles, and export account data. - [Threads Replies Scraper](https://apify.com/futurizerush/threads-replies-scraper?fpr=rush): collect public replies and comments for conversation analysis. ### Responsible Use Use this Actor responsibly and make sure your use case complies with applicable laws, platform terms, and privacy expectations. This Actor does not log in to Threads and does not access private account data. # Actor input Schema ## `usernames` (type: `array`): Enter Threads usernames or profile URLs. Examples: zuck, @instagram, https://www.threads.com/@threads ## `maxPosts` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of public posts to save per profile. Use 0 to request up to 10,000 currently available public posts. ## Actor input object example ```json { "usernames": [ "zuck" ], "maxPosts": 100 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `overview` (type: `string`): No description ## `fullDetails` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "usernames": [ "zuck" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("futurizerush/threads-posts-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
