Threads Integration in Openvibe

Updated on October 31, 2024

We're excited to offer Threads support in Openvibe! While some features are still in progress, they’ll be added as Threads enhances its API and expands federation to the open social web.

What You Can Do with a Threads Account:
  • Log in with your Threads account
  • Post and crosspost to Threads
  • Reply to comments on your Threads posts
  • Quote and Repost Threads posts
Federation Features with Mastodon:

If someones Threads account is federated with the open social web, you can access it fully via Mastodon. When logged into Openvibe with your Mastodon account, you can:

  • Search for federated profiles
  • Follow profiles
  • View federated Threads posts in your timeline
  • Interact with posts (comment, like, repost, quote)
  • Mention users

We’re working hard to bring more Threads features to Openvibe. Stay tuned for future updates!

Threads Login Troubleshoot

We're aware that some users are experiencing login issues with Threads due to OAuth not functioning as expected. Our team is actively working to resolve this. In the meantime, here are some steps that may help you successfully log in:

Possible steps to fix these issues are:

  • In Threads app -> Settings -> Account -> Website permissions -> remove Openvibe connection if connected previously
  • Log out from Threads in a browser that is used for log in in-flow
  • Clear cache and history in your app browser used for login
  • Use different default browsers for clean login flow
  • Remove the Threads app (only if you are redirected to their app during login) and try to use the browser login flow from the app
