Integrate Instagram and Pinterest with Pabbly Connect

The integration of Instagram and Pinterest is essential for automating the process of creating Pinterest pins from Instagram posts. This automation allows users to share their Instagram content seamlessly across platforms. To set this up, start by accessing Pabbly Connect and logging into your account.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow, for example, ‘Create Pinterest Pins from Instagram Post Automatically.’ After naming, select the folder where you want to save this workflow.

Set Up Instagram Trigger in Pabbly Connect

Setting up the Instagram trigger is a crucial step in automating the pin creation process. In this step, you will select Instagram for Business as your trigger application. The trigger event here will be ‘New Post in My Account,’ which means every time a new post is shared on Instagram, it will initiate the workflow. using Pabbly Connect

After selecting the trigger application, you will need to connect your Instagram account. Click on ‘Connect with Instagram for Business’ and authorize the connection. Once the connection is successful, you can click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button to capture the latest post details.

  • Select Instagram for Business as the trigger application.
  • Choose ‘New Post in My Account’ as the trigger event.
  • Authorize the Instagram account connection.

After capturing the response, you will see all the details of the latest post, including the ID, owner ID, media type, and caption. This confirms that your Instagram trigger is set up correctly and ready to proceed to the next step.

Create Pinterest Pin Action

In this section, you will create the action that connects to Pinterest. Select Pinterest as your action application and choose the action event ‘Create Pin.’ This step will ensure that every new Instagram post results in a corresponding pin on your Pinterest account.

To create the pin, you need to connect your Pinterest account to Pabbly Connect. Click on ‘Connect with Pinterest’ and authorize the connection. Once connected, you can start filling in the required fields to create your pin.

  • Select Pinterest as the action application.
  • Choose ‘Create Pin’ as the action event.
  • Authorize the Pinterest account connection.

Once the connection is established, you will need to select the board where the pins will be saved. For example, choose a board titled ‘Trendy Outfits.’ This setup will ensure that every new Instagram post is automatically pinned to the correct Pinterest board.

Finalize Your Automation Workflow

The final step is to finalize your automation workflow by mapping the required fields. Start by mapping the media URL from the Instagram response to the image URL field in Pinterest. This ensures that the correct image is used for the pin. using Pabbly Connect

Next, enter a static title for your pin, such as ‘Discover Your Style – New Fashion Arrivals for Every Occasion.’ Finally, map the caption from Instagram to the description field in Pinterest. This way, every new pin will have the relevant information from the original Instagram post.

After completing the mapping, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. This will create a test pin in your selected Pinterest board using the details from your latest Instagram post. Once confirmed, you can activate your workflow, and the automation will run smoothly!
