INTERNAL TOOL

Aris Pin Scheduler

Publishes reviewed Pins for my own Etsy products to my own Pinterest business accounts, through the official Pinterest API and OAuth.

What it is

I run several Etsy shops, and each shop has its own Pinterest business account that I own. Aris Pin Scheduler is a small first-party tool that helps me share my own products on those accounts consistently, without copying and pasting Pins by hand. It is not a public product and has no other users.

How it works

  1. I pick products from my own Etsy shops that I want to promote.
  2. The tool prepares a 2:3 Pin image from the listing photos and a draft title, description and alt text.
  3. I review every draft and approve or reject it. Nothing is published without my approval.
  4. Approved Pins are spread out over the day within a small daily limit per account, then created through the Pinterest API.
  5. Each Pin links directly to the matching Etsy listing. I check Pin performance to learn which products work on Pinterest.

Pinterest connection

  • Each of my Pinterest business accounts is connected once through Pinterest's official OAuth consent screen.
  • No Pinterest passwords or cookies are ever collected; there is no browser automation.
  • Permissions requested: user_accounts:read, boards:read, boards:write, pins:read, pins:write.
  • Tokens are encrypted (AES-256-GCM) on my own server and are never shown or shared.
  • Pins only link to my own Etsy listings, with no link shorteners or redirects.
