Connect Pinterest Ads

Connect a Pinterest business account to import campaign performance, run an audit and review supported campaign status changes.

Before you start

  • A Pinterest business account with access to the ad account you want to connect.
  • The Campaign Medic workspace must have Pinterest Ads enabled.
  • The Pinterest app must have access to the API features requested during authorization.

Connect and run an audit

  1. 1

    Check account access

    Make sure the provider account you will authorize can see the Pinterest Ads advertiser account you want to connect.

  2. 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. 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. 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. 5

    Review before applying

    Read each recommendation and its expected effect. Any supported account change requires your approval, and the app records the operation.

Campaign Medic currently supports pausing and re-enabling Pinterest campaigns after you approve the action.

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.
