Pinterest video downloader and board grabber: bulk pins, full-size images, video Pins

Because Pinterest loads with infinite scroll, and an extension can only see what has already loaded onto the page.

The fix: scroll the board all the way to the bottom before you hit batch, wait for everything to load, then run it. Or use Pin Toolbox (paid), which pages through the API and does not depend on scrolling.

It depends on whether you want files or data.

• Just saving the images means Pinterest Image Downloader (Futoo) is enough, and it is free.
• Keeping each Pin's description and source link, or collecting by keyword, means Pin Toolbox, which is paid.

Yes, though the hit rate is slightly below images - the media address for a video Pin lives in a data object rather than on an img tag, so it has to be parsed separately.

Futoo and Pin Toolbox both handle them. For a single video Pin you can also paste the link into Cobalt.tools without installing an extension.

Not by default. Copyright in a Pinterest image belongs to the original creator, the platform is only aggregating, and whoever re-pinned it holds no rights either.

Personal inspiration use is low risk; putting it in published design work or commercial material means following the Pin's source link back to the original and checking the licence terms. See Terms of use.

Yes. Frequent requests trip Pinterest's rate limiting, which shows up as slow loading or a job that stops mid-run.

Suggestions: run in batches, one board at a time, do not start several jobs at once, and keep your main account out of it. Paid tools usually have a resume feature, so an interrupted run picks up instead of starting over.
