Postly for Pinterest
Publish image or video Pins to a board, then optionally add search-friendly titles, descriptions, destination URLs, alt text, thumbnails, tracking, and Idea Pin pages.
Where you can publish
Content formats
Compare upcoming content, review media order and understand what the platform API makes available. Planning canvases do not change native profile or board layouts.
Read the Pinterest planner guidePlan your first publish
Connect Pinterest, choose the board, and prepare an image or video Pin with its title and description. Set the destination URL explicitly, test the link, and select a publishing time. Review the board and creative together before scheduling.
Promote a seasonal collection with separate Pins for each product. Match every image to its product page and distribute the Pins across the campaign calendar.
Inside your publishing workspace
Save named presets for your Pinterest workflows, choose a preset when preparing content, and review the settings before publishing. Create, rename, and manage presets in your workspace.
Presets supply reusable defaults. Review content-specific settings and account permissions for every post.
You can also apply presets across organization workspaces where you have permission to manage them.
Put it into practice
Follow these focused guides for the formats and publishing decisions that matter on Pinterest.
Choose the connected board that matches the topic and attach an image or video.
Write a descriptive title and useful description, then set the destination URL in Pinterest settings.
Preview the Pin, test the destination on mobile, and schedule the post.
Keep in mind: An explicit destination URL gives you control over which page readers visit.
Group your creative by topic and select the appropriate boards.
Prepare distinct images and copy for each idea, with links to relevant products or articles.
Schedule the content over time and review existing links before reusing older Pins.
Keep in mind: Refresh seasonal copy and expired offers before repeating a campaign.

Create multiple pages with individual titles, descriptions, calls to action, and destination URLs.
Enable multi-page navigation and allow comments where supported.
Enable tracking and attach a campaign tracking code.
Choose a thumbnail for eligible video content.

Delete from Postly, DELETE /posts/{postId}, and postly_delete_post remove only the post in Postly. Live content remains on every platform. Save live links and provider IDs before removing the post. For supported published content, open the dashboard post menu and choose Delete on Platforms. Keep the post in Postly and review every destination result. Delete Everywhere removes the post only after every destination is resolved. A platform may refuse removal of an individual post. Review the result before assuming it is gone.
JPEG or PNG; current Postly allowance up to 32 MB, minimum width 600 pixels. A 2:3 image is recommended. One MP4, MOV or M4V, 4 seconds–15 minutes, provider constraint up to 2 GB. Postly Pro allowance is 1 GB. Set the required video cover separately; do not add it as another post attachment.
1 image or 1 video per standard Pin. Postly allows up to 5 selected files; the separate multi-page settings are a different format; do not assume several selected files will become a standard carousel Pin.
Upload supported image formats, including JPEG and PNG. In the editor, Postly automatically converts supported images when a destination needs a different format, while keeping compatible images unchanged. Use Fix images in the channel preview for remaining size or aspect-ratio issues, then review the result. Repairs are checked again. Tiny originals, unreadable files and images that still exceed requirements need replacing or manual export. Enlarging cannot restore missing detail. Videos are not automatically compressed or re-encoded.
Review each destination separately. A successful destination should not be republished just because another failed. If the result is unconfirmed, check the live destination before retrying to avoid duplicates. Correct rejected media and retry only the affected destination.
Set the Destination URL in Pinterest settings and test the link before scheduling. Setting it explicitly is useful when the caption contains more than one link.
Connect your account, build the post, review every platform setting, and schedule from one Postly workspace.
