Pinterest Keyword Search Scraper - Pins, Images & Creators

A Pinterest creators scraper: search any keyword and get the pins, their images and destination links, plus the creators behind them.

Search Pinterest by keyword and export pins with image URLs, titles, descriptions, creator handles and board context - 26 columns per pin. No login required from you.

• Keyword search at scale - the same results the search page shows, as data
• Full-size image URLs on every pin
• Creator context - username, full name where Pinterest exposes it
• 26 stable columns per row

Quick start

Open the actor, keep the defaults, press Save & start. The reference run below is exactly that. Then adjust the input for your own search and export CSV, JSON or Excel from the dataset tab - or call it from the API and read the dataset programmatically.

A real row

Straight from a reference run, trimmed to the highlights:

{
  "pin_id": "613474780539670508",
  "pin_url": "https://www.pinterest.com/pin/613474780539670508/",
  "title": "Color Harmony Palettes \ud83c\udfa8 | Curated Whole House Paint Palettes for Timeless & Trendy Homes | Perfect",
  "description": " ",
  "alt_text": "a large kitchen with wooden cabinets and counter tops, along with two stools that match the wood flooring",
  "image": "https://i.pinimg.com/originals/49/a8/b9/49a8b949c941c0de8eb648b4596fca68.jpg",
  "thumbnail": "https://i.pinimg.com/236x/49/a8/b9/49a8b949c941c0de8eb648b4596fca68.jpg",
  "image_width": 474,
  "image_height": 624,
  "link": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1750710895/traditional-armhouse-home-paint-palette",
  "domain": "etsy.com",
  "is_video": false
}

How it works

The actor maintains its own anonymous session and calls Pinterest's internal search resource the way the site does, then flattens each pin's nested payload into a row with full-size image URLs.

Every column, with measured fill

board_url	100%
board_pin_count	100%
search_query	100%
scraped_at	100%
actor_build	100%
actor_run_id	100%

A missing value is null; the column set never shifts, so your CSV import is stable across runs.

Pricing

Pay per result - charged only for rows delivered; the current rate is on this page's Pricing tab. Zero results cost zero, and failed fetches are never billed.

Use cases

• Trend & aesthetic research - What ranks for a style keyword, with images ready to review
• Creator sourcing - Which accounts dominate a niche's search results
• Content planning - Top-performing pin formats and titles for your keywords

Honest limits

We would rather say it here than have you find out on a paid run:

• Search returns what Pinterest ranks for the term - typically dozens to a few hundred pins per keyword, not the whole platform
• Engagement counts are not part of Pinterest's search payload and are not invented here

Scheduling & integrations

Every input works identically from the API, so this actor drops into schedules and pipelines: run it on an Apify Schedule for a recurring export, point a webhook at the finished run to push rows into Slack, Google Sheets (via Zapier/Make/n8n) or your warehouse, and page through the dataset with the standard Dataset API. Saved tasks keep your configuration one click away.

FAQ

Do I need a Pinterest account? No - the actor manages its own session.

Can it scrape a specific board? Keyword search is the supported path today; boards surface through their pins.
