Threads in SignalDeck

What SignalDeck does on Threads.

  • Text posts

    Up to 500 characters, with up to five links in the approved text.

  • One image

    A JPEG or PNG up to 8 MB with optional alt text, fetched by Threads from SignalDeck's media URL.

  • One video

    An MP4 or MOV up to five minutes. SignalDeck waits until Threads finishes processing before it publishes.

  • Identity check on every publish

    Before each post the token must still resolve to the confirmed Threads account, or the destination is held.

  • Receipts and metrics

    Each receipt carries the Threads media ID and permalink; views, likes, replies, reposts, quotes, and shares are read where Threads returns them.

Connecting an account

How a Threads account is connected.

Threads connects through SignalDeck's own Meta app on the official Threads API, not Composio. SignalDeck never asks for a password, and the account cannot receive scheduled posts until an owner or admin confirms it.

  • Start from the workspace

    An owner or admin clicks Connect Threads. The signed attempt expires after 15 minutes.

  • Authorize on Threads

    You sign in on Threads and grant the publishing, replies, and insights permissions.

  • Identity readback

    SignalDeck stores a 60-day token encrypted, reads the account ID and username back from Threads, and refreshes the token before it expires.

  • Confirm

    An owner or admin confirms the identity. Only then is the destination verified and able to receive scheduled posts.

Where every network stands

SignalDeck lane status, network by network.

This is the same status SignalDeck shows in the product. Threads is a launch lane.

  • Publishing today

    Instagram Business and Creator accounts, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn member profiles, YouTube channels, and Threads profiles (text, image, and video).

  • Disabled until review

    X. The direct writer exists but stays off until a terms review and the owner's risk acceptance are complete.

  • Gated

    TikTok and Pinterest. The lanes exist but refuse to publish, and their accounts cannot be connected yet.

  • Not available

    Bluesky and Google Business Profile. They are not in the publish registry and cannot be connected.
