Pinterest Overview#

The Pinterest API opens a portal to interact programmatically with Pinterest's rich data, including boards, pins, and user information. By leveraging this API on Pipedream, you can automate actions like posting new pins, extracting pin data for analysis, and synchronizing Pinterest content with other platforms. The potential extends to marketing optimization, content management, and audience engagement, all automated and integrated within the Pipedream ecosystem.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Pinterest	`pinterest`	`app`	This component uses the Pinterest app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

Refersion is a powerful affiliate tracking platform that streamlines the process of managing, tracking, and growing your affiliate network. Through its API, you can automate affiliate registrations, commission tracking, and payout processes.
