How Threadly Sends Your Messages

Depending on your destination, Threadly might leverage your Bot Token or your User Token to deliver the message. Learn more about the breakdown below.

Destination	Token Used	Reason
Private Channel (Including Channel-based Conversation Groups)	Bot	Threadly allows you to customize the profile photo and name of the message when it is sent to your channel. As a result of this, Threadly requires the Bot Token. Note: The profile option that matches your name will still send as a Bot, and a user will be able to identify it was sent via Threadly.
Public Channel (Including Channel-based Conversation Groups)	Bot	Threadly allows you to customize the profile photo and name of the message when it is sent to your channel. As a result of this, Threadly requires the Bot Token. Note: The profile option that matches your name will still send as a Bot, and a user will be able to identify it was sent via Threadly.
User DM (Including User-based Conversation Groups)	User	In order to ensure smooth and 1:1 communication, Threadly sends messages to another user as you. This means the receiving user will be unable to identify that it was sent through the app.
