Threads
Threads is an online social media and social networking service operated by Meta Platforms which includes a direct integration with Instagram.
Threads requires an Instagram account to sign up, and the two profiles will be linked from that point on. Your Instagram handle is also your Threads username, and the name or nickname you enter on Instagram is the name that will be displayed on Threads.
Our integration with the Threads platform allows our customers to upload videos and images to their Threads accounts using our live clipping, editing and publishing tools.
There are some limitations when posting content to Threads, including:
- Threads does not support GIFs
- Videos sent to Threads must be less than 5 minutes long
- Threads does not support interlaced videos
- Images sent to Threads must be less than 8 MB
- The text sent through to Threads must be less than 500 characters
- Images may be scaled if they are larger than 1440/320
