Connect Pinterest
On this page
You need: a Pinterest account with at least one board.
On Pinterest, Robopost publishes Pins to boards. Each board you connect is its own channel and counts once toward your plan's channel limit. In Robopost it's named after your account and the board, like "yourname (Recipes)".
Connect your Pinterest boards
- Go to Channels → Connect channel and click Pinterest board.
- Pinterest opens. Sign in if asked.
- Pinterest shows what Robopost is asking for: read your account, and read and create boards and Pins. Click Give access.
- Robopost opens Connect Pinterest board with your boards. Turn on each board you want to publish to.
- Click Connect.
"Successfully connected" appears, and each board is listed in Channels → Channels.
Add a board you created later
Connect Pinterest again: click Pinterest board, then turn on the new board in the list and click Connect. Boards you connected before stay connected.
Troubleshooting
"We could not find any data."
Robopost found no boards on the account you signed in with. Create a board on Pinterest, or check you signed in to the right Pinterest account, then connect again.
The wrong Pinterest account was connected
Pinterest keeps you signed in. Log out of Pinterest in your browser, or use a private (incognito) window, then connect again.
"Connect error. There was an issue while trying to connect your account."
You cancelled on Pinterest, or Pinterest refused the request. Try again and click Give access.
Pins started failing
The connection may have expired. See Reconnect a channel.
What to fill in for a Pin (title, destination link, cover): Network options.
