Getting started

How to crosspost Bluesky posts to Threads

  1. Connect Bluesky and Threads

    Add both accounts to MicroPoster. Connect the Threads profile you want to publish to, rather than assuming your Instagram profile is the destination.

    The Connected accounts page with an X, a Threads, a Bluesky, a Mastodon and a LinkedIn account connected.
  2. Make Bluesky the source

    Create a crossposting automation. Select your Bluesky account as the source and your Threads account as the destination, then activate it.

  3. Post on Bluesky as usual

    Start with a short text post. After the next automation check, open Threads and review the copy. Then try the media and threads you normally publish.

    Recent activity on the dashboard: crossposts from X to Bluesky and Threads marked Crossposted and reposts on X marked Reposted, each with a link.

A workflow for two different networks

A Threads post, not an Instagram post

This automation publishes to your connected Threads profile. It does not publish to Instagram, even if the profiles are linked in Meta’s apps.

Formatting follows the destination

Bluesky and Threads support different post formats and limits. MicroPoster adapts supported text, media and threads for the destination; the result may not look identical.

Keep local conversations local

A Bluesky-specific announcement does not have to appear on Threads. Use #nocrosspost or #keephere when you want automatic crossposting to skip a post.

Questions about this workflow

Need help with your accounts? Contact us.

Can I automatically post from Bluesky to Threads?

Yes. MicroPoster can use Bluesky as the source and Threads as the destination. Once the accounts are connected and the automation is active, it checks for new Bluesky posts and publishes supported content to Threads.

Can I crosspost from Threads to Bluesky too?

Yes. Create an automation in the other direction, with Threads as the source and Bluesky as the destination. The destination’s content limits still apply.

Does this also post to Instagram?

No. Threads is the destination for this workflow. MicroPoster supports X, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon and LinkedIn; Instagram is not a supported destination.

How quickly does automatic crossposting run?

MicroPoster checks for new posts at the interval included in your plan. Crossposting is not instant. Platform availability, media processing and your remaining allowance can affect when a post is published.

Can I keep a post on just one platform?

Yes. Add #nocrosspost or #keephere to the post, or a reply in its thread, to skip it in automatic crossposting. You can still crosspost it manually from your dashboard.

Will edits to the original update the copy?

No. Crossposting publishes a separate post on the destination account. Editing the original does not automatically update a copy that has already been published.

Do I need a credit card to try MicroPoster?

No. New accounts receive a 7-day trial under the Creator plan limits. A trial without payment details does not automatically become a paid subscription. Check Pricing for the current account limits and allowances.
