## Pricing

from $0.80 / 1,000 pins

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Pinterest Search Scraper - Pins, Links, Products & Prices

Scrape **Pinterest search results** for any keyword: pin title and description, **full-size image**, **destination link and domain**, reactions, board, and for shopping pins the **product name, price, stock and rating**.

### Why this one

- **Where pins send traffic.** Every pin's destination `link` and `domain`, for content and SEO research.
- **Shopping data** on product pins: price, currency, in stock, rating and review count.
- **Full-size images** (`orig`), not thumbnails, with width, height and dominant color.
- **Ads left out by default**, so results are organic pins.
- **You only pay for pins.** Failed searches are listed in `RUN_SUMMARY` and cost nothing.

### Input

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| Searches | `kitchen ideas`, `wedding dress` |
| Max pins per search | `100` |
| Skip promoted pins | on/off |

Every field is optional except **Searches**.

### Output

One row per pin. Example:

```json
{
    "source": "pinterest",
    "id": "e1_AfqPShw03e3zdGNqxTRsaexIV4GtE_XBFwIMCksBLDaOZV9uT2_5",
    "title": "Explore Montauk Gin 2x8 White Ceramic Subway Wall Tile with Mixed Finish",
    "description": "The Montauk Gin 2x8 White Ceramic Wall Tile reimagines the subway format in durable ceramic—with a distinctively modern feel. The pure white coloring complements a wide range of palettes and design styles. Surface shading and a variety of matte and satin finishes offer artisanal touches to all appli...",
    "altText": "a kitchen with wooden cabinets and white counter tops",
    "link": "https://www.tilebar.com/montauk-gin-2x8-ceramic-wall-tile-satin.html",
    "domain": "tilebar.com",
    "image": "https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bc/54/e8/bc54e89cd5e3e093314c3349401ec38e.png",
    "imageWidth": 1000,
    "imageHeight": 1600,
    "dominantColor": "#846c4c",
    "isVideo": false,
    "video": null,
    "reactions": 63,
    "createdAt": "2024-01-14T07:22:59.000Z",
    "isPromoted": false,
    "productName": "Montauk Gin 2x8 White Mixed Finish Ceramic Tile",
    "price": 45.73,
    "currency": "USD",
    "inStock": true,
    "productRating": 4.9,
    "productReviews": 192,
    "siteName": "TileBar.com",
    "board": "Tiles & Backsplashes",
    "boardUrl": "https://www.pinterest.com/TileBar/tiles-backsplashes/",
    "pinnerIsMerchant": true,
    "url": "https://www.pinterest.com/pin/e1_AfqPShw03e3zdGNqxTRsaexIV4GtE_XBFwIMCksBLDaOZV9uT2_5/",
    "searchQuery": "kitchen ideas"
}
```

Each row also has `searchQuery`: the search that found it. A summary of the run (pins per search, the site's total
for each search, and any searches that failed) is saved as `RUN_SUMMARY` in the key-value store.

Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML from the Output tab, or use the API.

### Use cases

- **Content and trend research:** what ranks on Pinterest for your keywords.
- **Traffic research:** which domains and pages Pinterest sends visitors to.
- **Product research:** prices and ratings of shopping pins in your niche.

### Pricing

Pay per pin. See the Pricing tab. Searches that fail are free.

### Good to know

- Logged-out Pinterest shows encrypted pin IDs (`e1_...`); the pin `url` still opens the pin.
- Pinterest decides how deep a search goes; very broad searches stop after several hundred pins.
- This Actor reads public search results only. It does not log in, and it does not collect the usernames or follower counts of people who pinned.

echo '{
  "searches": [
    "kitchen ideas",
    "wedding dress"
  ]
}' |
apify call dariandanciu/pinterest-search-scraper --silent --output-dataset

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
