What it checks

The Threads publish worker polls the container status until it reports FINISHED. If the status transitions to ERROR instead, this rule fires with the upstream message attached on platformResponse.

Common causes

  • The provided media URL became unreachable mid-fetch.
  • Threads’s transcoder rejected the asset (corrupt mp4, unsupported codec inside an otherwise mp4 container).
  • Account-level temporary block.

Failure response

{
  "error": {
    "code": "preflight_failed",
    "rule": "threads.container.error",
    "platform": "threads",
    "platformResponse": { "error_message": "...", "error_code": 100 },
    "remediation": "Inspect platformResponse for the upstream message; usually a transcoder rejection — re-encode the asset and retry."
  }
}

Remediation

Inspect platformResponse.error_message. The most common cause is an mp4 container that has unsupported codec inside it (e.g., HEVC inside .mp4). Re-encode with ffmpeg -c:v libx264 -c:a aac and retry.
