Pinterest API: Profile — Boards by username

What this endpoint does

What you can build with this API method

Review the result and common workflows first, then move to parameters and a working request example.

What this endpoint helps with

The response provides available Profile fields in normalized V2 or platform-native V1 format.

When to use it

Use “Boards by username” after the object is known and your product needs its current public context.

Common use cases

Record enrichment

Attach public Pinterest fields to known product objects.

Data validation

Verify identifiers and current public context before downstream processing.

Analytics preparation

Use object details as inputs for reports, scoring, and related requests.

Available versions

Response version

Both versions solve the same job and accept the same parameters. Use the switch to compare the response structure and choose the version your client expects.

Response version V2

Switch versions on this page to compare response structures while keeping the same documentation URL.

What stays the same

Authentication, required parameters, and the request shape stay the same across V1 and V2. In practice, you choose the version when you build the endpoint path and when you parse the response.

What changes between versions

The main difference is the response envelope. Use V2 for new integrations and keep V1 only when you need compatibility with an existing client contract.

How to use it

How to call the method

Use the same API key header and the same query parameters for both versions. This documentation shows the shared parameter set first, then version-specific endpoint paths and code snippets.

Input parameters

Shared parameters

Parameter	Required	Type	Example	Description
`username`	Yes	`str`	`value`	Public username without the @ symbol.
`cursor`	No	`str \| None`	`QVFB...`	Next-page cursor returned by the previous response. Omit it for the first page.
`sort`	No	`last_pinned_to \| alphabetical \| created_at`	`last_pinned_to`	Pinterest board sort order. Example: last_pinned_to.

Version-specific request path

V2

Choose a version when you copy the exact endpoint path, example URL, and code snippet. The parameter list above stays the same.

FAQ

Questions teams ask before implementation

Use these answers to decide whether this API method fits your workflow, versioning choice, and rollout plan.

What data does this Pinterest API method return?

The method performs “Boards by username” for Profile. The compact response example below shows the exact field structure.

Should I choose V1 or V2?

Choose V2 for new integrations because it provides a normalized structure. Use V1 only for compatibility with clients that already consume the platform-native format.

What do I need for the first request?

Create an API key, send it in the request header, and provide the required parameters from the table. The code samples already contain the correct path and request structure.
