Connect

Threads

SocialOAuthThreads developer docs ↗

Threads connects through Meta's Threads API. You authorize Modiva to publish and reply on the Threads profile tied to your account.

Before you start

  • A Threads profile (linked to your Instagram account).
  • Access to approve the Meta consent screen.

Step-by-step setup

  1. 1

    Sign in to Modiva

    Log in at modiva.ai and open the Dashboard. You need a Modiva account before you can connect any platform — creating one takes a minute and no credit card is required for the free tier.

    Open Connections → New connection

    In the left sidebar choose Connections, then click New connection. You'll see the full catalogue of platforms grouped by category (Social and Ads).

  3. 3

    Select Threads

    Click the Threads card. Modiva redirects you to Threads's official sign-in and permission screen — your password is entered on Threads, never on Modiva.

    Authorize Modiva on Threads

    Review the permissions Modiva is requesting and approve them. If you manage more than one account, page or profile, pick the one you want Modiva to manage.

    You're connected

    Threads now sends you back to Modiva and the connection appears with a green Connected status. From here it's available to every MCP key and API call in your workspace.

Permissions Modiva requests

When you connect Threads, Modiva asks only for the access it needs to run the tools you use. You can revoke it any time from Threads or by disconnecting in Modiva.

  • Publish and reply to threads

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Where is my Threads password stored?

Nowhere. You sign in on the provider's own site and Modiva only receives a scoped access token, which is encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. Modiva never sees your password.

My connection says Expired or Error — what do I do?

Open Connections, find the platform and click Reconnect (or Refresh token). Providers periodically expire tokens or revoke them when you change your password; reconnecting re-runs the consent screen and restores access.

How do I disconnect?

Open Connections, click the Threads row and choose Disconnect. Modiva deletes the stored token immediately. You can also revoke Modiva from inside Threads's own app settings.

Threads has no inbox in Modiva — why?

The Threads API does not currently expose private messaging, so the inbox/DM features are unavailable for Threads.
