Pins that keep driving traffic for months.
Key takeaways

- Every variant is validated against character and media limits before it schedules — nothing fails silently at publish time.
What you can publish to Pinterest
Pinterest is a search engine wearing a social feed. Queue photo Pins with keyword-rich descriptions and they compound for months. Keep descriptions focused: the first lines are what people see.
| Content type | Text limit | Media | Publishing |
|---|---|---|---|

| Carousel Pin | 800 | Required · up to 5 · image | Direct API2 to 5 images that people swipe through. They all link to the same destination. |

Pinterest questions
Can I schedule video and carousel Pins?
Yes. Video Pins (MP4 or MOV, 4 seconds to 15 minutes) and carousel Pins (2 to 5 images) are supported alongside single image Pins. Videos are checked before they are sent.
Can I choose the board and the link?
Yes. Set a default board for the account, change it per post, and add a destination link and alt text on each Pin.
What image ratios work?
2:3 or 1:1. Single Pins take one image; carousels take two to five.
How long can descriptions be?
800 characters. Front-load the keywords — most viewers never expand.
Do Pins really last longer?
Pinterest surfaces Pins in search for months, unlike feed posts measured in hours. Evergreen recycling pairs well here.
