Connect a Pinterest account

Connect a Pinterest profile to Hootsuite to manage it from the same place as your other social media accounts. When you connect a Pinterest account to Hootsuite, you can schedule your pins in advance and manage them as part of your larger social content calendar.

To add social accounts to Hootsuite organizations, you need Super Admin, Admin, or custom Add social networks organization permissions. Social accounts can only be connected to one organization, but they can be shared with multiple teams. Learn more about managing your organization's social accounts.
