What it shows

  • FOLLOWS

Each value refreshes every 30 min. The view shows the Threads icon, the name of what you follow, then each value with its title above it.

How to set it up

  1. Create a Meta app with Threads

    Open Meta for Developers, Create app, choose the use case Access the Threads API, and add the threads_basic and threads_manage_insights permissions.

    Meta for Developers

  2. Generate a token

    In the app open Threads > Settings, add your Threads profile as a tester (accept the invite in Threads), then use User Token Generator and copy the long-lived token.

    Enter in DataPix: Access token

  3. Add it

    In DataPix go to Views → Add a View → Social & community → Threads, fill in the form, press Test to see real values, then Add. You can also add it to any view as one value: Add a value → App stat.

Updates every 30 minutes. The device renews the 60-day token by itself.

The token is stored on this device only. Exported views never contain it.

Keys and sign-ins stay on your DataPix. Change or remove them any time under Accounts & API keys.
