for Pinterest marketers

Schedule Pinterest pins with ready-to-post drafts and a single approval queue

Create Pin content, attach board and destination metadata, and queue drafts for review. TimeToPost drafts Pins in your voice, holds every draft in one approval queue, then publishes to supported platforms. Direct publishing to Pinterest is not currently supported, so TTP prepares ready-to-post Pin drafts you can export or copy for manual upload.

  • Human decision before publishing
  • Evidence and exceptions stay attached
  • No generated testimonial or outcome claim

how this fits your workflow

prepare Pins in TTP before you publish to Pinterest

TimeToPost drafts Pins from your ideas, trends, SEO topics, and other sources. Drafts include caption text in your voice, alt text, image attachments, and destination URL fields so the Pin is ready to publish.

Every draft waits in one approval queue until a human approves it. Once approved, TTP publishes to supported platforms. Because TTP currently publishes live to Instagram, TikTok, and X only, Pinterest drafts are prepared and exported for manual posting.

step-by-step

how to schedule pinterest pins in TimeToPost

Create a new Pin draft, add the image, and write the description and alt text. Populate the board name and destination URL fields so reviewers know where to place the Pin on Pinterest.

Send the draft to the approval queue. After a reviewer approves, either publish directly to supported networks or export the image and metadata for manual upload to Pinterest. Use comments to capture board placement or section details for the team member who publishes.

publish options

direct publish versus prepare-and-export

Direct publish automates posting through the social network API and removes manual steps. TimeToPost currently supports direct posting to Instagram, TikTok, and X, which reduces manual work for those networks.

For Pinterest, use TTP to prepare and queue complete Pin drafts. Some third-party tools publish directly to Pinterest via the Pinterest API. If you need automatic Pinterest publishing, weigh that against TTP's workflow benefits like a single approval queue, unified drafting, and consistent metadata handling.

availability and permissions

what to expect for permissions, approval, and plan limits

TimeToPost stores Pin metadata and holds every draft in one approval queue. A human must approve Pins before publishing. After approval, TTP publishes to supported networks only. Direct Pinterest posting is not available at this time.

TTP offers a single, simple plan that includes drafting, the approval queue, and the Get Found suite. There are no hidden tier gates to the drafting and queue features. If Pinterest direct-publish becomes available, it will require the appropriate Pinterest API permissions and user account connection.

Questions for this workflow

Frequently asked questions

Can TimeToPost publish Pins directly to Pinterest?

Not currently. TimeToPost prepares complete Pin drafts with image, description, board name, and destination URL, but direct publishing to Pinterest is not supported today. After approval you can download the image and copy or use the stored metadata for manual upload to Pinterest.

How do I select a board when I schedule a Pin?

Enter the board name and optional section in the draft metadata fields. TTP stores that information with the draft so reviewers and the person who publishes to Pinterest see the intended board placement.

Does the approval queue publish automatically once approved?

Yes for supported networks. Once a human approves a draft, TTP will publish it to connected networks that support direct posting, namely Instagram, TikTok, and X. For Pinterest, approval completes the draft and prepares it for manual upload.

Is scheduling Pins gated behind a higher plan?

No. Drafting, metadata fields, and the single approval queue are included in TimeToPost's simple, single plan. If direct Pinterest publishing is added later, it will require connecting the Pinterest account and granting any API permissions required by Pinterest.
