Start setup
  1. Step 01

    Create your DeskFerry account

    Sign up at deskferry.app — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

  2. Step 02

    Authenticate PayPal

    Click "Add Connection" and select PayPal from the app directory. You'll be redirected to PayPal's authorization page. Grant DeskFerry access to your orders, products, and customer data. You choose which store data the integration can read.

  3. Step 03

    Authenticate Pinterest

    Same process for Pinterest. Click "Add Connection," select Pinterest, and authorize access. Grant DeskFerry access to your orders, products, and customer data. You choose which store data the integration can read.

  4. Step 04

    Choose your trigger

    Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new order placed in paypal or new order placed in pinterest. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

  5. Step 05

    Configure the action

    Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create order in pinterest. Map the data fields between PayPal and Pinterest so the right information lands in the right place.

  6. Step 06

    Test and activate

    Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between PayPal and Pinterest. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — DeskFerry handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect PayPal to Pinterest?

Sign up for a free DeskFerry account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both PayPal and Pinterest via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing commerce events to commerce actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.

What can I automate between PayPal and Pinterest?

You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new PayPal events to Pinterest actions, trigger Pinterest updates when PayPal data changes, create Pinterest records from PayPal events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.

Is the PayPal and Pinterest integration free?

DeskFerry's 7-day free trial is enough to prove the workflow out. If your PayPal-to-Pinterest workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.

Is my PayPal data secure when connected to Pinterest?

Yes. DeskFerry uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your PayPal or Pinterest passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your commerce data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your DeskFerry dashboard.

Can I sync data both ways between PayPal and Pinterest?

Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either PayPal or Pinterest. For example, create a workflow where PayPal events update Pinterest, and a separate one where Pinterest changes sync back to PayPal. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.

Do I need technical skills to connect PayPal and Pinterest?

No coding is required. DeskFerry's builder is prompt-based: you describe the trigger and what should happen in plain English, and the agent handles the field mapping. If you can use PayPal and Pinterest, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
