Get a Pinterest pin

Try in Playground

Retrieve a public pin’s full details: description, media, author, board, destination, save, share and reaction counts. Full responses expose Pinterest’s camelCase fields at the top level, preserving nested media and author data. imageSpec_orig aliases images_orig when needed. Trimmed fields: entityId, seoAltText, originPinner, pinner, imageSpec_orig, description, shareCount, nativeCreator, createdAt, repinCount and totalReactionCount. Counts are never guessed; missing required pin fields fail explicitly.
