Practical ways you can use Google Drive and Pinterest
Back up Pinterest boards to Google Drive
Save visual inspiration and important content from Pinterest for safekeeping. Each time you add a new Pin on a specific board, Zapier will automatically download it to a folder in Google Drive. This ensures your curated content is backed up and organized for future use.
Business OwnerStore team project Pins on Google Drive
Keep all team inspiration in one spot. When a new Pinterest Pin is added to a designated board for projects, Zapier will save it to a Google Drive folder for easy collaboration and access. This streamlines creative input and keeps project assets centralized for the entire team.
Project ManagementSave visual assets for pitches from Pinterest to Google Drive
Organize visually appealing content for client presentations. When a new Pin is saved to a board for sales materials, Zapier will copy the image or video to a Google Drive folder. This ensures the team has immediate access to relevant visuals, which enhances proposal workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions about Google Drive + Pinterest integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Drive and Pinterest
How do I save Pinterest Pins to Google Drive automatically?
You can use a Zap to automate the saving of Pinterest Pins to Google Drive. Set up your trigger in Pinterest to be when a new Pin is saved, and then configure Google Drive as the action step, allowing you to store pins in a specific folder.
Can I upload files from Google Drive to Pinterest directly?
Currently, we do not support a direct integration that uploads files from Google Drive to Pinterest. However, you can download files from Google Drive manually and then upload them to Pinterest.
What are common issues when integrating Google Drive with Pinterest?
Common issues include incorrect configuration of the trigger or action in your Zap, such as selecting the wrong trigger event from Pinterest or choosing an inaccurate folder path in Google Drive. Ensure access permissions are correctly set for both platforms.
Is it possible to organize my Pinterest Pins using folders in Google Drive?
Yes, this is achievable by choosing specific folders on Google Drive where new Pins should be saved. When creating your Zap, select a folder structure that accommodates your organizational preferences so each Pin automatically goes into its designated folder.
What happens if I delete a file from either platform when using integration?
Deleting a file from one platform does not automatically delete it from the other. Our Zaps typically focus on creating or updating records based on triggers but do not duplicate deletions across integrated platforms.
Can I create multiple Zaps for different boards on Pinterest?
Absolutely, you can set up separate Zaps for each board on Pinterest by creating unique triggers for each board. This way, you can specify different actions or folders in Google Drive for each board's content.
Do I need any special permissions to connect my accounts?
Yes, you'll need permission to access both your Pinterest and Google Drive accounts. Ensure you're logged into the correct accounts during setup and that you grant access when prompted during the Zap creation process
