Weekly Threads Report Sent to Email

A weekly n8n workflow rolls up all your Threads posts from the last 7 days into a summary, then has Email send a notification email so your team never has to dig for the numbers.

difficulty Intermediatesetup 20 minresult A hands-off n8n workflow where every relevant Threads post automatically reaches Email — send a notification email.
  1. 1

    Fetch Threads data

    Add an HTTP Request node (or the native Threads node if you have credentials set up) and point it at the Threads API. Run on a weekly Schedule Trigger and fetch this week's posts. Add a Schedule Trigger before it if this recipe runs on a timer, or a Webhook node if Threads can push events directly.

  2. 2

    Shape the data with a Set node

    Add a Set node after the fetch step to pull out the fields you need — e.g. id, title (or name), status, and updated_at from the Threads post. This keeps the rest of the workflow clean and readable.

  3. 3

    Send it to Email

    Add a Gmail node set to operation Send. Connect your Google account and set To, Subject and Message from the Set-node fields.

  4. 4

    Activate and test

    Click Activate in the top-right corner. Trigger a real post in Threads (or run the workflow manually against existing data) and confirm it lands correctly in Email. Once verified, this runs hands-off.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to code anything?

No. n8n is a visual, drag-and-drop builder. You connect your Threads and Email accounts, map the fields, and activate — no code required.

Where do I get my Threads API credentials?

In your Threads account settings, look for "API", "Developers" or "Integrations" and generate an API key or token. Paste it into n8n's HTTP Request node (as a header or credential) or the native Threads node if one is available.

Can this run on a schedule instead of in real time?

Yes — swap the trigger for a `Schedule Trigger` set to whatever interval fits (every 15 minutes, hourly, daily). The rest of the workflow stays the same.
