Pinterest Boards Scraper

📌 Find Pinterest boards and collect pins

Content teams, designers, marketers, and developers can use Pinterest Boards Scraper to find public Pinterest boards by keyword or collect pins from board URLs. It saves board and pin rows with public URLs, media links, creator details, and engagement data in the default dataset. You can also include available public comments for collected pins.

• Use Pinterest Board Ideas to start a public-board content search.
• Review Mood Board Examples to gather references for visual research.

🧭 Board and pin data from Pinterest

Each run writes one row for each first eligible board or pin it finds. The recordType field is board for keyword discovery and pin for board URL collection. Board rows include board identity, counts, cover images, preview thumbnails, and owner details. Pin rows include pin text, source media links, creator details, engagement counts, board details, destinations, and optional comments or product details. If the same board or pin appears again from another submitted value, the first eligible occurrence is saved and later matches are ignored.

▶️ Run a board search or pin collection

1. Set Result type to Find boards by keyword or Collect pins from board URLs.
2. For board discovery, add one or more keywords. For pin collection, add one or more boardUrls.
3. Turn on includeComments when you want available public comments and nested replies for collected pins. Add maxCommentsPerPin when you want a comment limit.
4. Start the run and open the default dataset from the output panel.

Use one result type per run. Fields for the other choice are ignored. A smaller limit keeps the run focused and reduces the rows you review. Publicly reachable Pinterest board data does not need buyer-supplied source login details.

❓ FAQ

What does an empty limit do?

Leaving maxBoards, maxPinsPerBoard, or maxCommentsPerPin empty returns all available results until the source is exhausted.

What happens if the same board or pin appears more than once?

The first eligible occurrence is saved. Later matches for the same source board or pin are ignored.

Can one run find boards and collect pins?

No. Choose one resultType for a run. Fields for the other choice are ignored, so use a separate run for the other task.

Can I collect comments from pins?

Yes. Set includeComments to true when collecting pins. The Actor returns available public comments and nested replies, and maxCommentsPerPin can limit them.

Can I use a private board or a profile URL?

No. The Actor uses publicly reachable Pinterest board URLs and does not cover private, restricted, or login-gated boards. Profile URLs are outside the input scope.

Does the Actor download images and videos?

No. It returns source media links and details. It does not download or store the image and video files.

Can I search public Pinterest boards without a login?

Yes. Public board discovery and collection do not need buyer-supplied Pinterest login details.

What if a board or pin is unavailable?

Pinterest content can be deleted, unavailable, or non-public. The Actor returns available data, but it does not promise a complete result set or fixed count.
