Common Questions
Why use Late instead of Pinterest's API directly?
Pinterest's API requires business account setup, complex OAuth, and careful handling of rich pin validation. Late abstracts all this complexity—one simple endpoint for scheduling pins on Pinterest and 10+ other platforms.
What Pinterest account types are supported?
Late supports Pinterest Business accounts and creator accounts. Your users connect via our OAuth flow, and we handle all the authentication complexity.
Can I schedule video pins?
Yes, Late supports scheduling both static image pins and video pins with full rich pin metadata and automatic format optimization.
How does authentication work?
Your users authenticate via our hosted OAuth flow. We manage token refresh, expiration, and re-authentication automatically. You never touch Pinterest OAuth directly.
Can I cross-post to other platforms?
Absolutely. Include Pinterest alongside TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Reddit, and Bluesky in one API call.
