Pinterest Autocomplete Scraper

🔎 Pinterest keyword and creator ideas from autocomplete

Pinterest Autocomplete Scraper helps content planners, SEO writers, and ecommerce sellers find keyword or creator suggestions shown in Pinterest autocomplete. Add seed phrases or Pinterest search URLs, then get one saved row for each suggestion with its source seed, lookup keyword, suggestion text, rank, type, and ID when available. Use the rows for pin titles, board names, content briefs, niche research, ecommerce keyword expansion, product research, creator research, and repeat keyword monitoring.

• Build a Pinterest keyword suggestions list from several seed phrases.
• Plan pin and board copy with Pinterest SEO keywords from a seed list.
• Check autocomplete phrases with a Pinterest autocomplete scraper run.
• Explore related phrases in Pinterest keyword research.
• Start a focused Pinterest keyword scraper export for a niche.
• Find public creators for a seed with Pinterest creator search.
• Review topic counts and context with Pinterest topic research.
• Explore search choices with Pinterest search refinements.
• Collect preview links with Pinterest keyword images.

📦 Pinterest autocomplete rows you can use

Each output row is one Pinterest autocomplete keyword or creator suggestion. It keeps the submitted seed, the lookup keyword, the suggestion, its rank in the Pinterest response, its Pinterest item type, and its ID when available. If the same keyword text or creator ID appears again in the run, the Actor ignores the later match and keeps the first eligible saved row with its original seed and rank context.

Keyword rows can also include search links, display labels, language and country context, notes, a category, preview image links, search choices, and topic facts. Creator rows include public names and profile links, with verification, profile images, and native pin counts when supplied.

Scope

This Actor collects public Pinterest autocomplete suggestions and their available details. It does not collect pin or board content, comments, media files, private data, logged-in recommendations, CPC, keyword difficulty, or trend forecasts. Topic search counts may be present, but they are not a complete keyword-volume report.

▶️ Run a Pinterest suggestion search

1. Add one or more seed terms in Pinterest keywords or search URLs.
2. Choose Keyword suggestions or Creator suggestions.
3. Set Suggestions per seed to cap matching suggestions checked for each seed, and Total suggestions to cap saved rows across the run.
4. Start the Actor and open the dataset.

A Pinterest search URL with a q parameter is normalized to its keyword seed while the submitted URL remains in seed. For a bounded first run, keep the prefilled seeds and maxItems value of 10. These are form prefills, not schema defaults. For a quick check, use fewer seeds or lower limits. Leave either limit empty or use 0 to collect all available results until the source is exhausted, subject to the other limit. To monitor changes, schedule the same seed list and compare later exports.

For keywords, alphabet expansion is on by default. It checks each seed alone and with each letter from a to z added after it. Turn it off for seed-only lookups. Creator mode ignores this switch. You can set a language tag such as nl-NL; this is a preference and does not guarantee country-specific results.

You do not need to provide Pinterest login details, cookies, a Pinterest API key, or a developer account.

Input fields

Field	Type	What it does
seeds	array of strings	Required list of keyword phrases or Pinterest search URLs. The q value from a URL supplies the lookup keyword, while seed keeps the submitted value.

💳 Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. One charge applies to each keyword or creator suggestion saved to the output. Both result types use the same event. The price is $0.00015 per suggestion on Free, Bronze, and Silver plans, and $0.0001 on Gold, Platinum, and Diamond plans. There is no Actor-start charge or separate charge for topic or creator details. Empty lookups do not create suggestion charges. Use maxItems to cap saved rows and their possible charges.

Limits and scope

• The Actor returns Pinterest autocomplete suggestions, not CPC, keyword difficulty, or trend scores. Search counts are available only for some exactly matched topics.
• Pinterest may return people, brands, or topic-like suggestions alongside keyword phrases.
• Private Pinterest data, logged-in recommendations, pin and board content, comments, ads, and media downloads are outside this Actor's scope. Creator suggestions include public profile details.
• Empty or very narrow seed terms can return few or no suggestions.
• Source-site availability can change. When one seed cannot be collected, the Actor keeps useful rows from other seeds when possible and reports the skipped seed in the run log.

❓ FAQ

How do the two suggestion limits work?

maxSuggestionsPerSeed caps matching suggestions checked for each seed. Repeated matches count toward it even when they are not saved again. maxItems caps saved rows across the whole run. Leave either empty or use 0 for all available suggestions, subject to the other limit. The form prefills a total limit of 10.

What happens when the same suggestion appears more than once?

The Actor saves the first eligible occurrence and ignores later matches from other seeds. The saved row keeps the first seed and rank context.

Can I enter Pinterest search URLs?

Yes. Paste a Pinterest search URL with a q parameter, and the Actor uses that query as the keyword seed while keeping the submitted URL in seed.

What if one seed has no suggestions?

A seed can return few or no suggestions. When one seed cannot be collected, the Actor keeps useful rows from other seeds when possible and reports the skipped seed in the run log.

Do I need a Pinterest account or API key?

No. You do not need to provide Pinterest credentials, cookies, API keys, or a developer account.

Can this scrape Pinterest pins or boards?

No. This Actor returns keyword and creator suggestions, with available topic and public creator details. Use a Pinterest pin, board, or media scraper when you need full content rows or media links.

Does this include search volume or trend data?

Some keyword rows include Pinterest-stated topic search and follower counts. These apply only to an exactly matched topic. No search-count period is assumed, and the idea's last-update date is not the count's measurement date. This is not a full search-volume report and does not include CPC, competition scores, or trend forecasts.

📝 Changelog

v2.0 (28-10-2026)

• Choose resultType: "keywords" or resultType: "creators" to get one kind of suggestion per run. Keyword results now exclude creators. To collect creators too, run again with resultType: "creators". Creator rows include public names, profile links, and other details when Pinterest supplies them.
• Keyword searches now add letters a to z to each seed by default to find more suggestions. Set expandAlphabet: false to keep seed-only lookups. Creator searches use only the seed.
• maxSuggestionsPerSeed now counts matching suggestions before repeats are removed. Repeats can leave fewer saved rows than this limit. Raise or clear it if you want more matches checked. maxSuggestionsPerSeed no longer defaults to 25 when omitted; set it in API input to keep each seed bounded. Use maxItems to cap saved rows across the run. Use 0 or leave a limit empty for all available matches, subject to the other limit.
• Use locale to request a language preference. It does not guarantee results from a country.
• Keyword rows now include display labels, search links, language and country context, notes, a category, preview image links, and search choices when available. Exactly matched topics can include search and follower counts. topic.searchTimeContext gives the idea's last-update date, not a search period or the date its search count was measured.
• Reliability improvements.

v1.0

• Streamlined the output to the core Pinterest keyword suggestion fields.
• normalizedSeed became keyword; update exports that use that key.
• Removed inputType, seedIndex, pinterestSearchUrl, sourceAutocompleteUrl, isDuplicate, and scrapedAt with no replacement in this version; remove these fields from exports.
• Removed includeSearchUrls because this version no longer returns search links; remove it from input.
• Lowered pay-per-suggestion pricing.

v0.0

• Initial release.
