Convert Pinterest posts to Markdown

Turn a public Pinterest URL into clean, portable Markdown for LLMs, notes, research, and archives. This guide follows the same domain-swap workflow as the X guide, adapted for Pinterest.

Want to test the form first? Use the Pinterest converter or start from the all-platform preview.

Why use AnyPost for Pinterest?

Pin titles, descriptions, and preview images as Markdown. Instead of pasting a live URL and hoping an AI tool can read it, AnyPost returns the post as a stable Markdown document with attribution.

ApproachWhat you get
Paste the original linkPreview cards, login walls, or incomplete context
anypost.mdClean Markdown with source URL and platform context

01: Cleaner context
Markdown removes navigation, overlays, embeds, and tracking parameters so models see the post content first.

02: Better archives
The output is plain text, easy to diff, store in Obsidian, add to a CMS, or keep in a research folder.

03: Predictable automation
The browser URL swap and the JSON API share the same conversion pipeline, so scripts and manual workflows produce the same style of output.

Step-by-step workflow

01: Copy the Pinterest URL
Use the public permalink for the post, article, story, video, pin, or thread you want to preserve.

02: Swap the domain to anypost.md
Open the AnyPost URL in your browser. The platform prefix keeps routing explicit.

After:  https://anypost.md/pinterest/pin/471118811036849221/

03: Add paid options when needed
Pinterest requires Pro, Scale, or Agency plus an apk_ key because it is a Pro-tier source with higher fetch cost.

04: Copy the Markdown output
Use the result in a prompt, archive, markdown editor, CMS, or API workflow.

What you get

  • Pin titles, descriptions, and preview images
  • Author name and pin thumbnail preserved inline
  • pinterest.com/pin/… and pin.it short links supported
  • Available on Pro and above

Good for

  • Feeding exact Pinterest context into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, or another AI assistant.
  • Saving source posts in Obsidian, Notion, a research database, or a static-site content folder.
  • Quoting public posts with the original URL and platform timestamp kept together.
  • Building lightweight review, monitoring, or archive scripts around a stable Markdown response.

For agents: fetch Markdown, not web pages

Give AnyPost to OpenClaw, Codex, Cursor agents, Claude Code, and RAG workers as their Pinterest fetch layer. Instead of driving the original site, the agent should rewrite the URL to anypost.md or call /api/convert, then read the clean Markdown response.

That keeps agents out of brittle DOM scraping, rate-limit loops, login walls, and browser automation noise.

Agent setup

  • Install the anypost-md skill, or give your agent the raw SKILL.md.
  • Store an apk_ key from Login for Agents and send it as Authorization: Bearer apk_live_xxx for paid options.
  • Use the domain-swap URL when the agent wants a plain Markdown document; use /api/convert when it needs JSON fields such as markdown, credits, or structured errors.

Paid options and API usage

Pinterest is Pro+ only. After buying credits, Login with Google to redeem checkout, create an apk_ key, and pass it with the conversion request:

curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer apk_live_xxx" \
  "https://anypost.md/pinterest/pin/471118811036849221/"

When your app needs JSON fields such as markdown, credits, or structured errors, call /api/convert with the original URL:

curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer apk_live_xxx" \
  "https://anypost.md/api/convert?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpinterest.com%2Fpin%2F471118811036849221%2F"

Pinterest FAQ

Which Pinterest URLs are supported?

Public pin URLs under pinterest.com/pin/… or pin.it/…, swap the domain for anypost.md. Pro, Scale, or Agency plan and an API key required.

Why does Pinterest need a Pro plan?

Pinterest is a Pro-tier source, alongside Instagram, LinkedIn, and Threads.

Is Pinterest available on the free tier?

No. Pinterest requires Pro, Scale, or Agency plus an apk_ key. Starter covers X tweets, Reddit, Bluesky, Mastodon, Hacker News, YouTube, and Medium.

Can agents use AnyPost instead of scraping Pinterest?

Yes. Give OpenClaw, Codex, Cursor agents, Claude Code, or your RAG worker the anypost-md skill at /i/skill.md and an apk_ key from Login for Agents. The agent should call AnyPost for Pinterest URLs and read Markdown instead of scraping the original page, which avoids brittle selectors, rate limits, and login walls.
