New values may be added; treat unknown values as other. - **`platform_type`string**: The platform's own product label, lowercase (reel, short, story, live, tweet, …). - **`title`string**: Headline (YouTube title, Reddit title); null on caption-only platforms. - **`text`string**: Caption, description or body as plain text. - **`language`string**: BCP-47 language of text, when the platform states it.

Everything else about each pin is in the item. A section's pins have their usual numeric IDs. - Pinterest hides some of a board's pins from logged-out visitors, so the list can hold fewer pins than the board's pin count. When it stops short of that count, page.end_reason is platform_limit, not end. - Pinterest sometimes shows a logged-out visitor only a board's first 25 pins. When every attempt meets that limit, the first page has 25 pins and page.end_reason platform_limit; asking again later, once the cached answer expires, can return the full page. - Pins come in Pinterest's own order: mostly the latest saved first, with a few it picks moved to the top. since and until are not taken. - A board's list has no comment or share counts, the pinner's follower count or the pin's interests. The Pinterest Pin API has them for a pin with a numeric ID. - When Pinterest's main API fails, the first page comes from its embed API, which serves a board's latest pins and nothing past them: numeric IDs, no dates or reactions, and page.end_reason platform_limit when the board has more. ## 1 credit per page.

More in the [API reference](https://socialtap.dev/docs/reference/pinterest/board_pins/index.md). **Does it take a board section's link?** Yes. A section's link returns that section's pins; the board's link returns every pin of the board, its sections' included. **Why can't the Pinterest Pin API open a pin from this list?** Pinterest names a board's pins by an encrypted e1_ ID for logged-out visitors and opens those only for signed-in accounts. The item already holds what the pin's page shows, except its comment count and interests. **How much does the Pinterest Board Pins API cost?** A page of up to 50 pins costs 1 credit. Every successful page is charged, empty pages included. SocialTap credits cost $0.75–$1.97 per 1,000, depending on the plan or pack. **How do I get the next page?** Repeat the same request with cursor set to page.next_cursor from the previous response, keeping the other parameters. When page.has_more is false there are no more pages. Cursors expire after 24 hours.
