Threads
Threads supports text-only posts, a single image or video, and carousels of 2-10 images. One optional setting attaches a topic tag.
Media Constraints
| Constraint | Images | Videos |
|---|---|---|
| Formats | JPEG, PNG | MP4 (H.264 or HEVC + AAC) |
| Max file size | 8 MB | 1 GB |
| Max count per post | 10 | 1 |
| Max duration | n/a | 5 minutes |
| Max resolution | 1440px wide | 1920x1080 |
| Text-only | Supported | Supported |
| Mix images + video | Not allowed | Not allowed |
Threads itself can mix images and videos in one carousel, but a Quegly post carries images or one video, never both, on every platform.
Platform Settings
Optional, under platform_settings.threads.
| Field | Type | Values |
|---|---|---|
| topic_tag | string | 1-50 characters, no periods, ampersands or spaces. A leading # is stripped. |
Examples
Text-only post
{
"type": "now",
"caption": "Shipping the Threads integration today. Text posts, images, video and carousels from one calendar.",
"account_ids": ["threads-account-id"]
}Carousel with a topic tag
{
"type": "schedule",
"scheduled_at": "2026-10-01T14:00:00.000Z",
"caption": "Three room makeovers, one afternoon.",
"media_ids": ["image-id-1", "image-id-2", "image-id-3"],
"account_ids": ["threads-account-id"],
"platform_settings": {
"threads": {
"topic_tag": "interiordesign"
}
}
}Caption Rules
| Max length | 500 characters. Hard limit; longer captions are rejected before the post is saved. |
| Links | Up to 5 unique URLs per post. |
Threads counts emoji as multi-byte, so a caption near 500 characters with many emoji can still be refused by Threads. Keep emoji-heavy posts a little shorter, or give Threads its own caption with a per-platform override.
