In the field Redirect URIs, add the url which points to the redirect url script. When the application is created, go to the application settings. For some reasons you won’t be able to change the name of your app later. The first step would be to create a Pinterest application : It won't work if you don't have HTTPS on your server. Pinterest requires your application to be hosted over HTTPS. However using just the login API is a very basic thing (as compared to extended features like creating pins, following users) and in this case I think Pinterest should approve your application quite easily. Submitting your application for review does not sound fun, but with increasing cases of API abuse it is slowly becoming a reality (a review is also required in Instagram & Facebook apps).
Until the application goes live, only the application creator and a few selected users can use it.
After building your application, you need to get it approved from Pinterest so that it becomes live to all.
You can find sample codes with instructions towards the end of this tutorial.
However you cannot get email of the user. In this tutorial I will discuss its implementation.Īfter implementing login with Pinterest, you can get user information such as username, ID, name, profile picture etc. You can implement Login with Pinterest feature in your web application using its API.
