How to schedule a Threads post

  1. Choose Connect a channel → Threads in PandaQueue and sign in on Threads' page.
  2. Write the post. Attach media for a photo, video or carousel, or add replies underneath for a chain.
  3. Pick a time, or choose Next queue slot to use your next saved posting time for Threads.

The composer checks every part against the 500-character limit as you type, so a long chain doesn't break halfway through.

Threads with Instagram, Bluesky and X

Threads sits between Instagram and the text-first networks. A common setup: the image for Instagram's feed, a 500-character take with the same image for Threads, a 300-character version for Bluesky and 280 for X. Pick all four in one post and edit each version in its own tab; they all land on one calendar. Instagram needs a professional account linked to a Facebook Page; Threads doesn't.

Turning one long post into a thread

Write it out in full and choose Split into thread: AI breaks it into parts that fit 500 characters, at natural points and in your words, for you to adjust before scheduling. The same text can be split separately for Bluesky's 300 characters and X's 280.

From ChatGPT, Claude or code

PandaQueue's MCP server and REST API are on every plan. Ask Claude or ChatGPT to “post this as a Threads chain on Monday at 8” and it drafts and schedules it once you confirm. How to connect it.

See every network's limits on the networks page, or the Bluesky scheduler if you post to both.

Questions

How do I connect my Threads account?
Choose Connect a channel → Threads in PandaQueue and sign in on Threads' own page. PandaQueue uses Meta's official Threads API and never sees your password. Your Threads account doesn't need to be linked to a Facebook Page.
Can I schedule a carousel on Threads?
Yes. Attach up to 10 photos and videos, in any mix, and they're posted as one swipeable carousel.
Can I schedule a Threads thread (a chain of replies)?
Yes. Add replies under the main post in the composer. Each reply can have up to 500 characters and up to 10 photos or videos, and PandaQueue posts them in order as a connected chain.
What statistics do I get?
Views, likes, replies, reposts and quotes for each post, read from the Threads API, next to your other networks' numbers.
Is Threads scheduling included in every plan?
Yes. Threads is one of 23 networks on every plan, from $19 a month for 10 channels, with no limit on posts.
