To auto-publish your Instagram posts to Pinterest, the first step is to set up Pabbly Connect. Begin by signing up for a free account on the Pabbly Connect website. Once you sign up, log in to your account to access the dashboard. From here, you will create a new workflow dedicated to this integration.

Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow something relevant, like ‘Auto Post Instagram Content on Pinterest as a New Pin’. This name will help you identify the workflow later. After naming your workflow, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

2. Setting Up the Trigger: Instagram for Business

The next step is setting up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. Click on the trigger application field and select ‘Instagram for Business’. In the trigger event dropdown, choose ‘New Media Posted in My Account’. This setup ensures that every time you post on Instagram, Pabbly Connect will recognize it and trigger the action.

After selecting the trigger, click on ‘Connect’ and then choose ‘Add New Connection’. You will need to log in to your Instagram account if you haven’t already. Once connected, select the Instagram account you wish to use. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to fetch the most recent post data from your Instagram account.

3. Setting Up the Action: Creating a New Pin in Pinterest

Now, it’s time to set up the action that will occur when the trigger is activated. In Pabbly Connect, click on the action application field and select ‘Pinterest’. In the action event dropdown, choose ‘Create Pin’. This action will allow you to create a new pin in Pinterest using the content fetched from your Instagram account.

Click on ‘Connect’ and then select ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Pinterest account. You will need to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Pinterest account. Once connected, specify the board name where you want the new pin to be created. You will also map the media URL, title, and description using the data fetched from Instagram.

• Select the board where the pin will be added.
• Map the image URL from the Instagram data.
• Provide a title using the caption from Instagram.

After mapping the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create a new pin in your specified Pinterest board. This action will confirm that everything is set up correctly.

4. Finalizing Your Automation in Pabbly Connect

Once the test request is successful and a new pin appears in your Pinterest board, your automation is almost complete. The beauty of using Pabbly Connect is that you only need to set this up once. After the initial setup, every time you post on Instagram, a new pin will automatically be created in Pinterest without any manual effort.

To ensure everything is working smoothly, review the data mapped in the action step. Make sure the media URL, title, and description are correctly aligned with your Instagram post. You can always edit the workflow if you need to make adjustments later.
