Read a single Threads post from its full URL. Get text, author, engagement counts, hashtags, media and a paid partnership flag. It returns the post alone, not the full thread around it.
Send POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with platform set to threads and action set to post_detail. Price $0.56 per 1,000 requests ($0.000556 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.

#Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra Threads Post details endpoint (threads/post_detail).
How the endpoint works:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to threads and action to post_detail, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
- url: Specifies the full post URL (e.g., https://www.threads.com/@username/post/POST_CODE) for post_detail and comments actions. The comments action does not guarantee extraction of all nested comment threads.
- Returns one object. Main fields: id, code, url, text, author_username, author_name, author_is_verified, like_count, comment_count, repost_count, quote_count, share_count; 21 fields in total, full list at https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social/catalog?platform=threads.
- Example request body:
{
"platform": "threads",
"action": "post_detail",
"params": {
"url": "https://www.threads.com/@openai/post/DW7RXR7EnRC"
}
}
- Price: $0.56 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.
Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.Request parameters

Response fields
#Business data is in results. The table lists the fields a record can contain; values the platform does not show are never made up.
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
id | The record's unique ID on the platform. Unique only within one platform; IDs can repeat across platforms. |
code | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
url | Link to the record on the platform. |
text | Body text with HTML removed, returned in full and never cut short (on a few platforms the list results themselves carry only an excerpt; the platform's field notes say so). |
author_username | Author's username (@handle), usually usable in URLs. |
author_name | Author's display name. |
author_is_verified | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
like_count | Likes. null means the platform or this capability does not disclose it; it is not 0. |
comment_count | Comments. null means not disclosed, not 0. |
repost_count | Reposts (as distinct from quote posts). null means not disclosed. |
quote_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
share_count | Shares. null means not disclosed, not 0. |
view_count | Views or plays. null means not disclosed, not 0. |
posted_at | Publish time in ISO 8601, UTC (for example 2026-08-07T12:34:56+00:00). Non-standard strings from the platform are passed through as is, so parse defensively. null means the platform does not disclose it. |
is_paid_partnership | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
author_id | Author's unique ID on the platform. |
author_avatar_url | Keeps the platform's own meaning |
image_count | Keeps the platform's own meaning |

platform | Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok). |

Meta official sources separate reposts, quotes, and shares, defining shares specifically as off-platform sharing. This clarifies original post engagement metrics, but does not guarantee that every metric will be present in every response or that publishing actions are supported.
