How to generate RSS feeds for a Pinterest user & specific Pinterest Boards – sociable.co

SHARE
Yes this article is about Pinterest but no, we’re not going to talk about the site’s astonishing rise or its revolutionary design features.  Instead we’re going to talk about something old school, RSS.
Pinterest RSS
As you might know we love RSS but over the past year fewer and fewer sites are including RSS as a service for their users.  In 2011 Twitter removed its RSS options from the site, although, as we’ve shown, it is still possible to generate RSS feeds for user profiles, Twitter lists, and searches.  And last year Google+ launched without any native RSS support.
So what of Pinterest’s RSS support?  Pinterest does offer a general RSS option but if you want specific RSS feeds you need to do a little work.
Pinterest Fire Hose RSS
The site does provide an RSS option for user profiles; this feed combines all the latest pins a user has created regardless of which board they are in.  To generate this RSS simply click on the user’s profile and select the RSS icon on the left of the page.  Another way to do this is to add feed.rss to the end of the user’s profile; for example, if you want to see the latest pins by Felicia Day your RSS URL would look like this http://pinterest.com/feliciaday/feed.rss.
Pinterest Board RSS
Following a specific board created by a user via RSS is less obvious.  If you visit a user’s Pinterest Board you’ll see that there are no links to subscribe to that board’s RSS feed.  But you can still generate a feed for it.
The RSS feed will show you the last 20 or so pins created in that board rather than the full contents.   You won’t be able to see the comments for pin but your feed will be updated when new items are added.
As for Pinterest search, it doesn’t look like there is a way to generate an RSS feed just yet.
Archive your Pinterest RSS
If you want to archive your Pinterest RSS feeds you can do so using Google Reader.  Using the RSS links above Google’s RSS application will allow you to store a Pinterest user’s, or their Board’s, pins – including pins they might have deleted from their account.

In today’s episode, we’re tackling a challenge every modern, data-driven organization faces: how do you keep information flowing freely while keeping it secure?
As more companies shift to the cloud, cyber risks are growing. Cybercrime is projected to cost businesses over $10 trillion in 2025, and many breaches go undetected for months. However, technology is also giving companies new ways to stay protected.
One tool gaining fresh momentum is managed file transfers (MFTs), which help organizations move data securely and keep operations running smoothly, especially when combined with cloud-native platforms.
To unpack this, we’re joined by Oded Nahum of Ness Digital Engineering. He explains why MFTs are essential to modern cloud infrastructures, how they work, and how, when paired with AI-driven solutions, they boost operational intelligence, making the technology accessible even to those without a software developer or IT background.
