Scrape Pinterest pins, boards, and user profiles at scale. Search by keyword, fetch pin details directly, browse a user's pins, list a user's boards, pull pins from a specific board, or fetch a public profile summary - all without login cookies or a browser.

Modes

What you get per pin

• pinId, pinUrl
• title, description, altText, autoAltText
• imageUrl and images
• mediaType, isVideo, videoUrl
• saves, commentCount, reactionCount
• linkUrl, linkDomain
• creator, creatorFullName, creatorAvatar, creatorFollowerCount, creatorVerified
• boardName, boardUrl, boardPinCount, boardFollowerCount, boardSectionCount
• visualAnnotations, dominantColor
• richSummaryType, richSummarySite, richSummaryTitle
• isShoppable, isPromoted
• scrapedAt

Empty fields are omitted - no nulls in output.

What you get per profile

• username, profileUrl
• fullName, bio, location
• followerCount, followingCount, pinCount, boardCount, monthlyViews
• avatarUrl, websiteUrl

• scrapedAt

What you get per board

Current userBoards output is intentionally lightweight and reliable:

• boardSlug, boardName, boardUrl
• creator
• scrapedAt

Proxy and reliability notes

• The actor is HTTP-only via curl_cffi.
• Pinterest may soft-block some datacenter IPs with empty or partial responses.
• On Apify cloud, the actor tries Apify Residential proxy first, then AUTO proxy, then falls back to no proxy if needed.
• boardPins and userProfile use public HTML fallback when Pinterest blocks the resource endpoint for anonymous access.

FAQ

Does it require a login or cookies?
No. All six modes use public Pinterest endpoints or public HTML pages.

Is a proxy recommended?
Yes on Apify cloud. Pinterest can return empty or partial results from some datacenter IPs, so the actor prefers Apify Residential proxy and falls back automatically.

How do I scrape only shoppable/product pins?
Set commerceOnly: true in your input. This applies Pinterest's native 'Products' filter and returns only pins linked to purchasable products.

Why might boardPins or userProfile return fewer fields than search or pinDetail?
Pinterest exposes less data on some public HTML pages than on search/resource responses. The actor still returns a clean record instead of failing.

Why might saves be missing on some pins?
Pinterest does not expose save counts on every pin type. When the API does not return a count, the field is omitted.

What happens if a username, board, or pin does not exist?
The actor finishes cleanly. If nothing is found, it sets a status message instead of pushing placeholder rows.
