Pinterest Boards API. Boards, page by page.

Account's boards with pin counts, covers and links. We handle the proxies, blocks and platform changes.

Returns a public Pinterest account's boards from its username, profile link or account ID. Each board has its name, description, link, cover picture, exact pin count and owner. Boards come in the order the profile shows them, including group boards the account joined, and the list pages on.

13 typed fields null when unknown
50 boards per page, the order the account's profile shows its boards in: its own arrangement (A to Z, or one it set by hand), else the boards saved to most recently first
handle is all it needs, e.g. pinterest

Send one request. Get up to 50 boards back.

200 OK · GET https://socialtap.dev/v1/pinterest/boardsLong arrays and strings are shortened here. Real responses are complete.Docs

One schema on 6 platforms.

The response reference lists every field, its type and when it is null. See the full schema.

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 Pinterest account: its username (any case, with or without the @), its profile link (pinterest.com/pinterest/, any tab of it, also on a country's site such as uk.pinterest.com or pinterest.co.uk) or its numeric account ID.
Write one parser
Pinterest, TikTok, Instagram and 3 more platforms answer in these fields, so the code that reads one reads them all.

platformstring: Platform ID (tiktok, youtube, facebook, …).
idstring: Platform-native playlist ID (string): TikTok's playlist (mix) or collection ID, YouTube's list ID (PL…), Facebook's video list ID.
urlstring: Canonical playlist URL.
typestring: 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_typestring: The platform's own label, lowercase (mix, collection, playlist, series, podcast, …).
titlestring: Name its owner gave it.
descriptionstring: Description as plain text; null when it has none or the platform shows none (TikTok).
ownerobject: 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.

Track how fast an account's boards grow

Good to know before you build.

Group boards the account joined are listed too: their owner is the account that created them, not the one asked for.
Pinterest shows only public boards to logged-out visitors, so secret boards never appear.
Pinterest's short links (pin.it) are not taken here: send the account's username or profile link.
