Starting January 1st, 2025, the standalone Pinterest Planner will be saying goodbye 👋, but don’t worry—you can still manage all your Pinterest content with our all-in-one Multi-Channel Workspace. The Pinterest Planner will be up and running until December 31, 2024, so any pins you’ve scheduled will still go out as planned. We understand this may be a challenging transition, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Key reminders:

    • You cannot create any new pins after December 31st.
    • Any attempt to create pins beyond this date will be not be available.
  • Scheduling Restrictions:

    • Any pins you create before December 31st cannot be scheduled for publishing after December 31st.
    • Make sure to publish or schedule all created pins to go live on or before December 31st.
  • Action Steps:

    • Review your current pin creation plans and ensure that any new pins are created and scheduled before December 31st.
    • If you need pins to be published after December 31st, consider creating and publishing them from the Multi-channel Workspace--more info below.
