Pinterest Profile Scraper — Pins, Boards & Stats

Point this actor at any public Pinterest profile and get the whole picture back as clean, structured data: the profile's own stats (followers, total pins, total boards, monthly views and reach where the profile publishes them), its pins with save and repin counts already attached, and its boards with pin counts and board follower counts. It is built for marketers, agencies, brand teams and researchers who need to study a creator, a competitor or their own account at scale — no Pinterest account, no login, nothing to install.

What you can do with it

• Audit a competitor's Pinterest presence — what they publish, how often, which boards they grow, and which pins actually get saved.
• Separate original content from re-saves. One switch decides whether you get only the pins this profile made or everything they have saved, including other people's pins they re-saved. Most accounts look completely different in the two modes.
• Benchmark creators before you work with them — follower counts, board follower counts, publishing recency and real save/repin numbers on their own work, side by side.
• Track your own account over time by scheduling a daily or weekly run and comparing the snapshots.
• Build a board map of a niche — every public board a profile keeps, with its size and its own follower count, ready to sort and filter.
• Feed a content pipeline with image links, destination links, board names and generated image descriptions.

What you get

Three kinds of rows land in one dataset, told apart by the type field: one profile row, then its pin rows, then its board rows.

Input reference

Field	Type	Default	What it does
profiles	list of strings	— (required)	Profile links or usernames, one per line. Accepts https://www.pinterest.com/username/, /username/, @username or plain username. Up to 200 per run.
pinType	select: created / all	created	created returns only the pins this profile made. all returns everything this profile has saved, in save order — which on most accounts is mostly other people's pins they re-saved.
maxPinsPerProfile	integer	100	How many pins to collect per profile (0–2,000). Set to 0 for stats and boards only.
includeBoards	boolean	true	Also return each profile's public boards.
maxBoardsPerProfile	integer	50	How many boards to collect per profile (0–1,000).
includePromotedPins	boolean	true	Promoted pins are always flagged. Switch this off to drop them and keep organic content only.
country	select	us	Which country to browse Pinterest from. Keep it fixed when comparing runs over time.
profilesInParallel	integer	4	How many profiles to work on in parallel (1–6).

Which pinType do I want?

You want to know…	Use
What does this brand actually publish?	created
How often do they post original content, and does it perform?	created
What is this person interested in / what do they curate?	all
What is on their boards right now, whoever made it?	all

The two modes return genuinely different content. created on a big blogger account can be a few hundred original pins; all on the same account can be tens of thousands of re-saves.

Pricing

You pay for results, not for run time.

What you pay for	Price
Every row added to your dataset — each pin, each board and each profile	$1.50 per 1,000 rows
A profile summary row with its full stats	$5.00 per 1,000 profiles

Worked example. You scrape 10 profiles, 100 pins each, plus 20 boards each:

• 1,000 pin rows + 200 board rows + 10 profile rows = 1,210 rows → 1,210 × $0.0015 = $1.82
• 10 profiles summarised → 10 × $0.005 = $0.05
• Total ≈ $1.87 for 10 fully profiled accounts.

Save and repin counts come attached to every pin at no extra charge — there is no upgrade to buy for engagement data.

Limits & what this actor cannot do

• Pinterest publishes a limited slice of any profile's history publicly, so very large accounts return what Pinterest makes available rather than an unlimited archive. The practical ceiling is 2,000 pins per profile per run.
• Private profiles and secret boards are not publicly viewable. A private profile returns its stats row and is reported as having no public pins or boards, rather than quietly returning zero.
• Deleted, renamed or unavailable profiles are reported separately from genuine failures in the run summary, so you always know which is which.
• Save, repin and follower counts are a snapshot at the moment of collection and keep changing afterwards.
• Comment counts are deliberately left empty on these rows: Pinterest does not publish a trustworthy figure for them here, and a confident zero would be worse than nothing.
• Many pins are published with no caption of their own; those arrive with an automatically generated image description in altText instead.
• Results are personalised to the country the run browses from, so the same profile browsed from a different country can return a slightly different set.
• Promoted pins can appear inside Pinterest's own listings; they are flagged so you can keep or exclude them.
• Follower and following lists are not publicly viewable on Pinterest and are not returned. Only the counts are.
• Speed depends on the size of the job and on Pinterest's own response times; no fixed throughput is promised.
• Pinterest's terms govern automated access. You are responsible for using the data lawfully, in line with the source site's terms, and for handling any personal data in line with applicable privacy law.

FAQ

Do I need a Pinterest account? No. Nothing to connect, nothing to authorise — paste profile links and run it.

Does it need my login or password? No. It only reads what any visitor can see on a public profile.

What is the difference between "created" and "all"? created gives you the pins the profile made itself — its original content. all gives you their whole save stream in save order, which usually contains far more re-saves of other people's pins than originals. Every row also carries isCreatedByProfile so you can tell them apart afterwards.

Is the data complete? It is complete for what Pinterest publishes publicly, up to the ceilings above. Very large accounts will not hand over their entire history, private content is never included, and comment counts are not available on these rows. Everything the actor does return is what Pinterest itself was showing at the moment of collection.

Do I pay extra for save and repin counts? No. Engagement is attached to every pin as standard.

Can I schedule it? Yes. Schedule it daily or weekly and compare the dated snapshots to track growth, posting cadence and which pins are gaining saves.

Can I scrape several profiles at once? Yes — up to 200 per run, worked through in parallel.
