Pinterest needs a business account and at least one board — a pin has to go somewhere.

2 things to prepare 5 steps

A window opens on the network's own site. You sign in there and approve access — nothing to copy or paste.

Before you start

A Pinterest business account. Converting a personal account is free and takes a minute.
At least one board on that account.

1
Convert to a business account
On Pinterest: your profile menu, then Convert to business, or create a new business account. Publishing tools cannot use a personal account.
2
Create a board
Make at least one board. When you compose a post you choose which board the pin goes to, so an account with no boards cannot publish.
3
Open Accounts
In Social Publish, go to Accounts, press Connect Account, and choose Pinterest.
4
Sign in and allow
Approve access to your boards and pins.
5
Pick a board when you post
Pinterest appears in the composer with a board selector. The board list is fetched live from your account.

The board list is empty.

The account has no boards, or the board was created after connecting. Create a board on Pinterest, then reload the composer.

A pin fails with an image error.

Pinterest downloads the image from a link we give it, and rejects links it considers too long or unreachable. Try a smaller image, or re-upload it.
