How to Get Access to a Client's Pinterest Business Profile
The fast way: one ClientInvite link
Managing Pins for a client shouldn't start with a password or a screen-share. Send one link and your client shares the profile in a single sign-in.
Generate Your Access Link
Connect your Pinterest business once in ClientInvite, then select 'Pinterest Profile' and generate your secure request link.
- Choose the access level: Publisher or Analyst
- Add the Pinterest ad account to the same link
- Copy the request link

Send the Link to Your Client
Share the secure access link with your client via email, Slack, or anywhere else.
- 100% secure and user-friendly process
- No client passwords stored, ever
- The client can revoke access at any time
Client Signs In With Pinterest
Your client signs in with Pinterest and confirms the profile. ClientInvite adds your business as a partner on it and accepts the invite for you.
- No Business IDs to send back and forth
- The profile appears in your Pinterest Business Hub
- Publish Pins and read analytics from your own login
How to share a Pinterest profile manually in Business Access
If your client prefers to do it themselves, here is the partner flow. Both sides need a Pinterest business account. Menu labels shift as Pinterest updates Business Access, so match the closest option in your account.
- 01
Get the agency's Pinterest Business ID
Ask your agency for its Pinterest Business ID. They can find it in their own Business Access settings, shown under their business name.
- 02
Open Business Access
Log in to the Pinterest business account and open Business Access from the account menu. You need to be an admin of the business that owns the profile.
- 03
Add the agency as a partner
Go to Partners, click Add partner, paste the Business ID, and choose to give the partner access to your assets.
- 04
Choose the profile and permission level
Select the business profile and pick a permission level, such as Publisher to create and publish Pins, or Analyst to view analytics only. Confirm.
- 05
The agency accepts the invite
Pinterest notifies the agency. Once they accept the partnership, the profile appears in their business and they can assign their own team.
Why agencies automate this instead
Business IDs, partner requests and a pending invite add days to a simple ask. ClientInvite turns it into one sign-in, and the same link can collect the Pinterest ad account, Meta and Google too. See ClientInvite pricing.
