Pinterest Keyword Research with Apify & Airtable | n8n

Find winning Pinterest keywords—automatically—then save the best pins to Airtable

This n8n workflow searches Pinterest for a keyword using Apify, filters the most engaging (non-promoted) results, ranks them by reactions, and stores the top pins—along with full metadata—into Airtable every Monday morning.

What this workflow does

• Runs on a schedule: scheduled for every Monday at 07:00.
• Queries Pinterest via Apify: sends your configured keyword and max item count to dam i_studio/pinterest-search-scraper (via the Apify node).
• Filters results: keeps valid, non-promoted pins that meet a minimum reaction threshold.
• Ranks by engagement: sorts the remaining pins by reaction count (descending).
• Maps pin data to Airtable: converts each pin’s fields—such as URL, title/description, board and creator information, image/media, outgoing links, and engagement stats—into an Airtable-ready record.
• Saves results: creates a new Airtable record for each top pin.

Use cases

• Weekly Pinterest SEO research: track which keywords surface the most engaging pins without manual browsing.
• Content planning for SaaS & ecommerce teams: gather inspiration (boards, creators, formats, links) tied to specific keyword targets.
• Automation engineers: set up a repeatable Pinterest keyword research pipeline that updates your Airtable database every week.

Technical details

• Scheduler: runs every Monday at 07:00.
• Apify integration: uses Apify through apifyn8n-nodes-apify to run dami_studio/pinterest-search-scraper.
