Pinterest Detail API

One post by ID or link.

The Pinterest Detail API returns one public Pinterest post by ID or link: text, author, likes, comment count and publish time, in the same response format as every other SocialToAI call. One call costs 2 credits ($0.004 to $0.0067 depending on the pack); failed calls are free. Call it over HTTP or from your AI client over MCP. Last tested 2026-10-17.

Questions.
Short answers.

Everything on Pinterest
Do I need a Pinterest account or Pinterest's own API access?
No. You only need a SocialToAI key. The call returns content and account information publicly visible on Pinterest; you never sign in to Pinterest or apply for anything there.

Your AI is one URL away
from all of social media.
