Short answer
How can I use AI to upload pins to Pinterest?
You give your agent an image and a destination, and it handles the upload. It finds your boards and places the pin exactly where you want it. You'll see the full process broken down below.

- 02
Can the AI delete my existing pins?
No. The tools are limited to listing boards and creating new pins.
- 03
Do I need to provide the image URL?
Yes. You need to provide the image link in the chat so the AI knows what to upload.
- 04
Can the AI edit the title of a pin I already made?

Does the AI work with any image?
It works with any image you can provide a direct URL for in the chat.
