In this section, we will look at how you can integrate Pinterest with Discord and automatically share newly created Pinterest pins on the Discord channel of your choice.
This automation requires a one-time setup, for which we will use Pabbly Connect.
We will first link Pinterest with Pabbly Connect to capture the pins, then link Pabbly Connect with Discord and share the pins on Discord.
Steps to Automatically Share Pinterest Pins on Discord
1. Sign In / Sign Up to Pabbly Connect and Create a Workflow
2. Establish a Connection between Pinterest and Pabbly Connect
3. Setup Discord as the Action App to Send Channel Messages
Step 1:- Sign In / Sign Up to Pabbly Connect and Create a Workflow
A. Sign In / Sign Up
To begin this process, visit Pabbly Connect and create your account by clicking on the ‘Sign Up Free’ button. You can also click on Sign In if you already have an account.
Click on the Pabbly Connect ‘Access Now’ button
B. Create Workflow
To create a new workflow, click the ‘Create Workflow’ button.
Name your workflow, and click on ‘Create’.
Step 2:- Establish a Connection between Pinterest and Pabbly Connect
We will now look at the steps through which we will establish a link between Pinterest and Pabbly Connect. This will help us capture details of the newly created pins.
A. Trigger App
Trigger allows us to choose the application that will receive the data for Pabbly Connect. In our case, it would be Pinterest.
Choose ‘Pinterest’ as the Trigger App, select ‘New Pin’, and click on ‘Connect’.
B. Connect with Pinterest Account
To connect with your Pinterest account, select ‘Add New Connection’ and click on ‘Connect With Pinterest’. Also, grant the authorization.
Select the Board whose pins you want to capture, and click on ‘Save & Send Test Request’.
Expand Response Receive, and the details of your latest pins must be visible, thus confirming the established connection.
Step 3:- Setup Discord as the Action App to Send Channel Messages
Action allows us to choose the application that will get executed by the workflow trigger.
We essentially want to share the captured Pinterest pins on a Discord channel. Therefore, Discord will be our Action App.
A. Action App
Choose ‘Discord’ as the Action App, select ‘Send Channel Message (Markdown)’ as an Action Event, and click on ‘Connect’.
B. Connect Discord Account
To connect with your Discord account, you need a Webhook URL. Follow these steps to generate the Webhook URL, copy the Webhook URL and paste it into its given field – This will establish a connection between Discord and Pabby Connect.
C. Map the Message
Now that you have connected your Discord account, all you need is to map the message to be posted from the step above. Mapping ensures our data remains dynamic and changes as per the received responses.
Map the Message to be posted from the step above, and click on ‘Save & Send Test Request’.
Similarly, map the other fields, leaving the unnecessary ones empty, and click on ‘Save & Send Test Request’.
The moment you click on Save & Send Test Request, the Pinterest pins will be shared on your Discord channel.
Note: Pabbly Connect checks for the data from Pinterest every 10 minutes, so any newly created pins may not be shared immediately.
Our automation is complete. We have successfully integrated Pinterest with Discord. Each time you create a new Pinterest pin, it will automatically be shared on the Discord Channel of your choice.
