Before you start
- A Pinterest business account with access to the ad account you want to connect.

Connect and run an audit
- 1
Check account access
Make sure the provider account you will authorize can see the Pinterest Ads advertiser account you want to connect.
- 2
Connect Pinterest Ads
Open Connect in Campaign Medic, find Pinterest Ads and choose Connect. Sign in to the provider and approve the requested access.
- 3
Choose the ad account
Return to Campaign Medic and select the account you want the workspace to use. Only accounts returned by the provider are shown.
- 4
Run your first audit
Open Audit, choose Pinterest Ads, select the connected account and run the audit. Campaign Medic will import the available campaign and performance data.
- 5
Review before applying
Read each recommendation and its expected effect. Any supported account change requires your approval, and the app records the operation.
Troubleshooting
- Available accounts and actions depend on the Pinterest app access tier and granted scopes.
- Campaign Medic currently supports pausing and re-enabling Pinterest campaigns after you approve the action.
- If an account is missing, confirm that the Pinterest user has ad account access and reconnect.
- If Campaign Medic reports that the connection attempt expired, return to Connect and start a new attempt in the same browser.
- If the problem continues, contact support with the platform name and the approximate time of the attempt. Do not send passwords, access tokens or app secrets.
Disconnect
Open Connect and choose Disconnect for Pinterest Ads. This removes the stored connection and stops future requests to the provider. Existing audit history remains subject to the retention period in the Privacy Policy.
