The data

Pinterest data,
ready to work with.

Pinterest search is useful for discovering an image, but its pin link, author, board and destination matter just as much as the picture. The hallway lighting example is one result from a recorded home-decor query, with the actual returned image and source domain shown together. Open a specific pin to inspect its available details; use boards to understand how a creator groups related ideas. Some results may omit a title, description or image, so keep missing fields empty instead of filling them from the query. Monocrawl returns these public records as JSON for visual research tools that preserve credit and source context.

Does every Pinterest search result include an image?

No. The recorded search includes results with missing image or title fields. Use the returned value as-is and do not invent an asset when the source omits one.

Can I reuse a pin image in my product?

The API returns public source links and image URLs, not a licence to republish someone else’s work. Keep attribution and check the rights for your use.

What Pinterest operations can I use?

The catalogue shows 4 currently available operations with their individual prices. Open an endpoint for its accepted inputs, returned fields and limitations.

How much does the Pinterest API cost?

Start with 150 free credits. Paid subscriptions start at $29 per month for 10,000 credits, before applicable tax. Each operation has its own price. Check the endpoint reference for variable charges. Compare plans

How do I authenticate requests?

Use your Monocrawl API key in the x-api-key header. The endpoint reference lists any additional inputs needed for the operation. Authentication guide

What request limits apply?

Limits depend on your Monocrawl plan. The Free account ceiling is 600 requests per minute and 50 simultaneous requests. Endpoint capacity and Free daily protections also apply; these ceilings do not guarantee source throughput. Read the limits guide

What should I know about Pinterest coverage?

Some returned pins omit titles, descriptions or images; do not invent these fields from the search query. An image URL in a public response is not a licence to republish the photograph without permission.

Is Monocrawl affiliated with Pinterest?

Monocrawl is an independent service. Third-party names identify data sources and do not imply a partnership or endorsement.
