## Pinterest Board API at a glance

Returns a public Pinterest board from its link, a section's link, a pin.it short link or its ID. It has the name, description, cover, the owner, exact pin and follower counts, and the date it was created. It also says whether the board is collaborative, lists its collaborators, counts its sections and names the interests Pinterest relates it to. A section's link returns that section, with the board it belongs to.

GET `/v1/pinterest/board`

Long arrays and strings are shortened here. Real responses are complete.

## One schema on 6 platforms.

The [response reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/pinterest/board/index.md#response) lists every field, its type and when it is `null`. [See the full schema](https://socialtap.dev/resources/playlist/index.md).

- ### Null means unknown

  A field Pinterest doesn't show is null, never zero or an empty string, so a real zero always means zero.
- ### What it accepts

  The board: its link (pinterest.com/\<username>/\<board>/, also on a country's site such as uk.pinterest.com or pinterest.co.uk), a link to one of its sections (pinterest.com/ikeausa/living-rooms/sofas-armchairs/), a short link (pin.it/\<code>) or its ID.
- ### Write one parser

  Pinterest, TikTok, Instagram and 3 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all.

- **`platform`string**: Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, facebook, …).
- **`id`string**: Platform-native playlist ID (string): TikTok's playlist (mix) or collection ID, YouTube's list ID (PL…), Facebook's video list ID.
- **`url`string**: Canonical playlist URL.
- **`type`string**: playlist: a list its owner curates and orders (TikTok playlists, YouTube playlists, Facebook playlists and series); collection: posts an account saved from any creator into a named public folder (TikTok collections). New values may be added; treat unknown values as playlist.
- **`platform_type`string**: The platform's own label, lowercase (mix, collection, playlist, series, podcast, …).
- **`title`string**: Name its owner gave it.
- **`description`string**: Description as plain text; null when it has none or the platform shows none (TikTok).
- **`owner`object**: The account that curates it (for a collection, the account that saved the posts, not their authors). Where a platform's curators are not accounts (Apple Music), what it states of them: a name, perhaps a page and a picture, with id and username null, and every field null when it names no one.

## What teams build with the Pinterest Board API.

- ### Track a board's pins and followers over time
- ### Find the accounts that contribute to a group board
- ### Check what a brand curates on its boards
- ### Map a board's sections and topics

## Good to know before you build.

- A section's link returns the section: platform_type is section, metrics.post_count counts its pins, and platform_specific.pinterest.board names its board. A section has no cover of its own in Pinterest's answer, so thumbnail_url is null.
- platform_specific.pinterest.collaborators lists at most ten collaborators, as Pinterest does; collaborator_count counts them all.
- Pinterest answers that a board is not there for secret boards and for some group boards it still lists on the owner's profile, so both return not_found.
- When Pinterest's main API fails, the board comes from its embed API, which has no creation date, privacy, collaborators, sections or interests, and no section links.

## Questions about the Pinterest Board API.

More in the [API reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/pinterest/board/index.md).

**Does it return the board's pins?**

No. The Pinterest Board Pins API lists them, page by page.

**Does it take pin.it short links?**

Yes. A short link that opens a pin or an account instead returns an error naming the endpoint that takes it.

**How much does the Pinterest Board API cost?**

A request costs 1 credit. SocialTap credits cost $0.75–$1.97 per 1,000, depending on the plan or pack.
