Create Pinterest Pins from WordPress Blog Posts

This trigger checks your WordPress site every hour for newly published posts. Once activated, it will detect any post that goes live and capture essential details like the post title, excerpt, featured image, and URL.

No configuration is needed - MESA automatically connects to your WordPress site and starts monitoring for new content. When a new post is found, it passes all the post data to the next step in the workflow.

This step automatically retrieves the full media details for your post's featured image using the media ID captured from the trigger. It pulls the actual image URL, dimensions, and other metadata that Pinterest needs to create the pin. The system handles this data retrieval automatically - no input required from you. Once complete, it provides the source image URL that gets used in the final pin creation step.

The AI processes your original WordPress post title and intelligently shortens it to meet Pinterest's character requirements while preserving the key message. It also strips out any HTML codes or special characters that might have carried over from your WordPress formatting. This automated optimization happens instantly with no configuration needed, ensuring every pin has a clean, readable title that displays properly on Pinterest.

This step creates the actual Pinterest pin using the optimized title, post excerpt as the description, featured image, and original blog post URL. You'll need to specify which Pinterest board should receive the pins by entering the board ID in the configuration field. The pin will include a clickable link back to your blog post, helping drive traffic from Pinterest to your WordPress site. All other pin details like the image, title, and description are automatically populated from the previous steps.
