  • foundboolean

    true

  • reason"not_found"

    Present only when `found` is false, and says why there is no result. `not_found`: the source states the target does not exist, or returned nothing for it. A `found: false` answer is a successful call, not an error, and `costUsd` is what it actually cost.

You get back. Named, typed fields in the same shape whichever source answers.

About the Threads Profile API

The AnyAPI Threads Profile API returns Threads profile data as normalized JSON from one POST call to /v1/run/threads.profile. Fetch a Threads user's public profile (bio, follower count, verification, profile picture) by username. AnyAPI routes each request across 3 sources and falls back automatically when one fails. It costs from $1.10 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. Over the last 30 days, 100.0% of Threads profile calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 24.3 seconds across 888 measured calls.

It costs from $1.10 per 1,000 requests, in US dollars with no subscription and no monthly minimum. You fund one USD wallet and each call draws it down. Some failed wallet-funded requests incur processing charges that we pass through at cost, with no markup; the error response shows the amount charged.

Fetch a Threads user's public profile (bio, follower count, verification, profile picture) by username. The response is normalized JSON with the same envelope every AnyAPI endpoint returns, so parsing a second endpoint is a change of URL and nothing else.

Over the last 30 days, 100.0% of Threads profile calls through AnyAPI succeeded, with a median response time of 24.3 seconds across 888 measured calls. These are AnyAPI's own measurements of traffic through the gateway, recomputed continuously, not a published service-level target.

Yes. A new AnyAPI account starts with $0.10 of free balance and no card required, which covers 90 Threads Profile calls at $0.0011 each.

AnyAPI asks the next of its 3 sources in the same request, cheapest first, so one source going down does not fail your call.

Send a POST request to https://api.getanyapi.com/v1/run/threads.profile with your AnyAPI key in an "Authorization: Bearer" header and the input as a JSON body. The same key and the same wallet work on every AnyAPI endpoint.

No. You add US dollars to one prepaid AnyAPI balance and each request draws it down. There is no monthly plan and no minimum, and the same balance pays for every AnyAPI endpoint.

Yes. Install @getanyapi/sdk from npm for TypeScript or getanyapi from pip for Python. Both call every AnyAPI endpoint with the same key, and any HTTP client works too.

Yes. An agent can connect to the AnyAPI MCP server at https://api.getanyapi.com/mcp, or create its own free-trial key with one unauthenticated POST to https://api.getanyapi.com/agent/signup and call this endpoint over HTTP.
