Hi @proven dust. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Based on the information provided in the extracts, there doesn't appear to be a limit on the number of threads that can be created. As per the OpenAI documentation (https://platform.openai.com/docs/assistants/overview), threads don't have a size limit and you can add as many messages as you want to a thread.

However, there is no information provided in the extracts about the ability to delete threads.

Please note that there is a retention policy for messages and threads, which is currently set to 60 days. After this period, they will automatically be deleted as mentioned in the forum post (https://community.openai.com/t/487558).

For more detailed information or for features not covered in the extracts, you may want to refer to the official OpenAI documentation or reach out to OpenAI support.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
