Chapter 42 – Pinterest Bot for Scraping Web URLs, Emails, and Automating Messages

1 week ago

A standalone bot might not be possible to finish an object-driven task like the influencer outreach, lead demand generation. It’s because of the difficulties to scrape a full stack of dataset from one standalone platform. Normally you need to consolidate data from different platforms for one object. Pinterest can provide you with emails, social messenger and web URLs in one place. It must be one of the most important parts integrated with your robotic processing automation script, as supporting the data source.

In this Chapter, I’ll walk you through coding a Pinterest bot for scraping the Pinterest user profile data and automating the messaging.

Web URLs, email, automatic messaging

Pinterest is a visual discovery engine for finding ideas, products, and images. With billions of Pins on Pinterest, you’ll always find ideas to spark inspiration. It’s also a social site where you can collect and share images of anything you find interesting. You can also visually discover new interests by browsing the collections of other Pinterest users.

It allows people to embed different links, such as shops, and websites in diverse formats. So visitors can engage with the content and click the media on their websites and stores. So from a scraping point of view, Pinterest is a great platform to collect web addresses and eCommerce store URLs from brands, bloggers, and influencers. What’s more, Pinterest opens access to the profile’s monthly traffic. Thus, except for the followers and view amount to evaluate a profile, traffic amount is also vital and it’s grabbable.

Last but not least, compared to Tiktok and Instagram, Pinterest message has fewer restrictions, where people can message anybody as long as the profile owners allow.

def pinLogin()

First thing first, you need to define a login function for the Pinterest bot. The scripts here use the selenium element_to_be_clickable and XPath to locate the user and password elements. Then it uses the send_keys method to feed the user name and the password.

def pinProfileData()

In the Pinterest user profile, you can scrape data from each pin such as the photo URL. Or the script can scrape the email, website URL, monthly traffic, the followers. For influencer outreach and email marketing, these 4 data points are very useful. Even if the profile email is not accessible, you can scrape the email from a website later on by using an email bot. And the monthly traffic and follow amount are very helpful for you to filter the best optimal influencers.

def pinMessaging()

Regarding the automatic messages in Pinterest, it’s super friendly to use a bot and save time to say hi to new partners and engage with them. And below are the steps that I convert into a Python script.

Visit profiles using a loop

After logging in using selenium, you can set up a loop to visit the profile one by one using driver.get(links). For the Pinterest SERP bot, I’ll walk through it in another article.

Customized Messages

Before sending a message to the profile user, you need to prepare the message items you can use to send. For example, you can create a list that includes hello, hi, ahoy, etc, and then leverage the random method to randomly use in the automatic messaging.

Also, for the main message, you can create a list and input several versions and use random methods as well to send and avoid the account block due to duplicate messages. If you like to use the profile user name, you can use the get_attribute(“Textcontent”) to grab the name and send in the automatic messaging as well.

Follow

In Pinterest, you need to follow the user first otherwise you can’t message her or him. Thus, the script uses the selenium element_to_be_clicable plus xpath plus click method to implement

Click the message button, locate the text area, paste the message and click the send button

By breaking down the steps, there are four actions your script needs to go through before delivering the messages. Step 1 is to click the message button, then it’s to locate the text area, which allows you to input your message.

Then as you have created the customized message variable along with using the random method, you need to add the variable using the selenium method send_keys().

Last but not least, the script clicks the send button and it’s done! This Pinterest bot script can help you repeat to do it without your manual requirements.
