Threads Reply Scraper: export the full conversation tree of any public post
A new tool called Threads Reply Scraper allows users to export the full conversation tree of any public post on Meta's Threads platform. This tool scrapes server-rendered HTML to extract conversation data, as the official Threads API does not support third-party access to reply trees. The scraper can efficiently gather structured datasets from public posts, which can be crucial for monitoring brand reputation and public sentiment.
