Threads connects directly, not through Instagram — even though the two share an account. You connect one Threads profile at a time.

1

Open Channels

Select Channels in the left sidebar, then Connect channel.

Pick Threads from the Add a connection panel.
Add a connection panel listing every channel Ocoya connects to, each with its category and an arrow to continue

Approve all three permissions

Threads asks for permission to read your profile, publish content and manage replies. Approve all three. The replies permission is what lets Ocoya publish threads — without it, any caption over 500 characters fails at publishing time.
There’s no profile-selection screen. Threads returns a single profile, and it appears on your Channels page once approved.

What you can post

Threads’ limits

Long captions become threads

Above 500 characters Ocoya splits your caption into a chain of replies rather than refusing it. Ocoya warns you while you write, and the post still publishes. Above 5,000 characters it’s refused outright. See Long posts and threads for how the splitting works.

Common problems

“Threading requires the threads_manage_replies permission.” You approved the first two permissions but not the third. Reconnect the profile and approve all of them — see Reconnect a channel. “My Instagram account is connected but Threads isn’t.” They’re separate connections in Ocoya, even on the same login. Connect Threads on its own.
