How to obtain Pinterest V3 API-KEY or access_token

问题:

I am trying to fetch Pinterest data, which would be the public info of the user(follower count etc), and all pins for a user.

I know the v3 API are up now and v2 apis have been taken down.

I found this link which gives me end points for exactly what I want:

http://techslides.com/most-repinned-pinterest-pins-by-website/

But I am unable to get an access_token. I have asked pinterest for api access but they have not replied. And I am unable to sniff app data too.

I also tried Pinterest's signature tester tool which is on their website but no luck. The link it generates doesn't work either. It returns a authorization failure.

https://developers.pinterest.com/tools/signature/

I have access to APP-ID and Client-Secret. I need to know how can I get an access token/ API-KEY to get the following work fine for me:

https://api.pinterest.com/v3/users/jessicamalba/?access_token=APIKEY

EDIT

Before I am told that is an duplicate of

How to get access token for access Pinterest Api

I would just say that it is not. This question was asked one year ago and was asked in respect to V2 api. Which now return a 404 status. So now here I am asking about the V3 api.

To preface, I saw some discussion that even though you can get the token, it may not work unless you are an approved developer. So you might consider applying to be an API developer while you wait to try to work all this out. Also V3 is beta, so.. This answer might work for now however, it may not work later if it ends up not being the official way to get the token when it comes out of beta.

Step one: Log into pinterest then you need to create an application on the https://developers.pinterest.com/manage/ link which you can also get from the main developers page on pinterest. I chose to create IOS application, even though I don't plan to use this with IOS, just so I could get an application created to try to make the API work.

Part of the creation of the app, asks you to specify a callback url, this is the url on your website that is going to receive the token & token related data in a hash tag {I presume they did this so that only javascript can get at it rather than php directly} however you could modify the hashtag in javascript to drop the hash and redirect it to another url which can collect it as get or post params.

Once created replace the application id "1412345" (i.e. consumer_id, also sometimes called client_id) into the url below.

What I have seen is this number starts with 14...... at present

https://www.pinterest.com/oauth/?consumer_id=1412345&response_type=token

Step two: The executed url above will bring you to a page asking you to authorize the application to access your user account. Once you authorize it it will send the token back to your website. in the hash tag and you can use javascript to read the hashtag

window.location.hash.substr(1, window.location.hash.length) will get you the get params string from the hash tag containing access_token, expires_at (duration in seconds which equals 30 days) and token_type which will equal "bearer"

Note the token will be base_64 encoded, I don't know if it's supposed to stay that way to be used but I presume so.

Okay, so as of today, following are the parts of the api that are public and used by widgets.

Public parts of API (used by widgets) Retrieving the pins on a particular board:

GET http://widgets.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/boards/eecolor/test/pins/
GET http://api.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/boards/eecolor/test/pins/

Retrieving the pins of a particular user:

GET http://widgets.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/users/eecolor/pins/

Retrieving the information of (a) particular pin(s):

GET http://widgets.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/pins/info/?pin_ids=521150988102375972
GET http://widgets.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/pins/info/?pin_ids=521150988102375972,10133167885969245

Count the number of pins:

http://widgets.pinterest.com/v1/urls/count.json?url={urlEncodedLink} http://widgets.pinterest.com/v1/urls/count.json?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fssass%2F3436030086%2F

Note that the link is returned in the other API responses

You can use ?callback=myJsFunction to use JSONP

GET http://widgets.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/boards/eecolor/test/pins/?callback=myJsFunction

You can use api instead of widgets and also https

GET http://api.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/boards/eecolor/test/pins/
GET https://api.pinterest.com/v3/pidgets/boards/eecolor/test/pins/
