Pinterest Scraper - Pins, Images & Links

Scrape pins from any Pinterest search as clean, structured rows. Type what you would search on Pinterest, such as kitchen ideas or minimalist tattoos, and the Actor returns one row per pin with its title, description, original image and size, the website it links to, reactions, creation date, the pinner with their follower count, and the board it was saved to. Use it for trend research, content ideas, competitor and product discovery, or to build image datasets.

No Pinterest account, no browser: the Actor reads the same data the Pinterest website loads for visitors. You pay $0.001 per pin returned.

What you get

One Dataset row per pin:

• title, description, altText (Pinterest's description of the image), url (pin page), id.
• imageUrl (original), imageWidth, imageHeight, thumbnailUrl, dominantColor, isVideo.
• link and domain: the website the pin points to (empty for uploaded images).
• reactions, createdAt, isPromoted.
• pinnerUsername, pinnerName, pinnerFollowers, boardName, boardUrl.
• query, searchUrl, and isNew on scheduled runs.

How to use it

1. Open the Input tab.
2. In Search queries type one per line, for example kitchen ideas, boho living room, wedding cake 2026. Or paste Pinterest Search URLs from your browser.
3. Set Max pins per search (default 50, up to 1,000).
4. Click Start and export the rows as JSON, CSV or Excel.
5. To follow a trend, schedule the Actor; new pins come with isNew: true.

FAQ

Can it download the images? It returns the original image URLs; download them with any HTTP client.

Does it scrape boards or profiles? This version scrapes searches. Each pin includes its board and pinner.

Why do some pins have no link? Pins uploaded directly to Pinterest do not point to an external website.

Where is the data stored between runs? In a Key-Value Store of your account named micro-saas-state-pinterest-scraper, one key per search. Delete it to start fresh.
