Authorise Pinterest App

Question

I have added a collaborator for my Pinterest app, however, when accessing the colaberators account and clicking on the application there is no 'authorise' button or anything similar. The "You still need at least 1 collaborator to authorize your app before you can submit" warning still shows on the collaberators account. Ant help would be appreciated, thanks!

Answer 1

Here is a quick 2019 year update:

• You need two pinterest accounts, they should be following each other and should be collaborators in the APP.
• Have a ssl protected call back url, they only accept https urls.
• Finally all collaborators should authorize the app through your application/site. For this you need to already have the pinterest sdk integrated in your project.

Now you can submit the app for review.

Answer 2

I had issue. By reading and following accepted answer, I waited 5 weeks and still submit for review button was not there.

What I did was I authorise my app for code which later I used for getting access token.

Once I successfully authorised my app using below authorisation URL the "Submit for review button " appeared in a second.

Authorisation URL:

https://api.pinterest.com/oauth/?response_type=code&client_id=XXXXXXXXXXXXX&redirect_uri=https://localhost:8000&scope=write_public read_public&state=abcdefg

Use your client_id to authenticate to your app. Once you are done with that you can see the "Submit For review button" after refreshing the browser.

Hope it helps!

We had the same problem. You need to at least add two co-workers, one as collaborator and one as tester. These must be different people. And then, after some while (!) the authorize button has appeared.

The co-workers need to accept the invitation as well, of course.

After submitting, it will take some weeks (!) until you get the approval.

Answer 4

for those who have this problem, note that you have to test your application before you could autorize or send to revision,

You need 3 Pinterest account, or 2 friends

register one as developer and another as tester

then, with the secret key and the app id, put it on your client application

after that, test the login,

finnaly go back to your pinterest app and the button for "send to revision" you wiil find it enabled,

Answer 5

Please confirm that you are using same App ID and App secret in your application which is in developer pinterest app.
