Pinterest error library

When using a scheduling tool like Buffer, there will be instances when a social network refuses the post and replies with an error message. Find your error below and follow the troubleshooting steps to get back on track.

In this article:

No board selected

Error message: "This post couldn't be published because no Pinterest board was selected. Please edit the post and choose a board, then try again."

Why this happens: Every Pinterest post needs a board to publish to. If a post is scheduled without one selected, Pinterest rejects it.

What to do:

  1. Open the failed post in your queue.
  2. Edit the post and choose a board.
  3. Retry the post.
