Quick answer

What Postifys supports

Postifys creates supported image or video Pins on a selected connected board. Production writes depend on Pinterest granting the required application access.

Media and post types

Supported publishing shapes

  • Image Pins to a selected board
  • Video Pins when the media and account access support them
Publishing method

Dashboard, API, or n8n

Connect Pinterest, choose a board, and publish from the dashboard, API, or n8n. Postifys records the attempt while Pinterest validates media and board permissions.

Permissions

Required access

Pinterest account access with board write capability approved for the Postifys application. Without approved production access, writes may be limited.

Media requirements

Before you enqueue

Use board-ready image or video assets with a reachable media URL and any destination link fields required by your Pin workflow.

Platform restrictions

Limitations to design around

  • Pins require a valid target board the connected account can write to.
  • Production write access depends on Pinterest application approval.
  • Media and destination URL rules follow Pinterest requirements.
API example

POST /api/pinterest/post

Authenticate with your Postifys API key and pass the connected account field pinterestBoardId.

curl -X POST https://postifys.com/api/pinterest/post \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "title": "Campaign pin",
  "mediaUrl": "https://cdn.example.com/pin.jpg",
  "pinterestBoardId": "CONNECTED_BOARD_ID"
}'
n8n workflow example

Choose Pinterest in the Postifys n8n node, select the board, and map title/media fields from upstream nodes.

Common errors

What usually breaks first

  • Board missing or unauthorized — reconnect Pinterest and confirm board selection.
  • Application access not approved for writes — check Pinterest app status before retrying production Pins.
  • Unsupported media — validate image/video requirements for Pins.
