Pinterest specs and limits

Pinterest text is limited to 500 characters, counted by code points. This page lists every text, media and posting rule 1Post checks for Pinterest: counts, sizes, lengths, threads and the daily cap. Where Pinterest publishes a figure on its own page we cite it with the date we read it.

These are the limits 1Post applies in the composer, so a post that passes is not refused for them when it is sent. A network can still refuse a post for reasons outside these rules, such as its content policies.

Questions

How is Pinterest text counted?

Pinterest text is counted by code points. The character counter applies the same rule.

Where do these Pinterest limits come from?

They are the limits 1Post checks before a post is sent. Figures the network publishes on its own page are cited above with the date read; the rest are checks 1Post sets.

How often is this page updated?

When a network changes a rule or we read a newer figure, the page changes with it. The date at the top shows the last change.
