Publishing settings control when and how Pins go out for the selected Pinterest account. Open Publishing → Settings and check the selected account first.

Time zone and queue times

Your time zone controls the clock used for publishing and displayed times. Check it before selecting a date or setting a weekly schedule. Under Queue times, add a time and select the weekdays on which it should be used. The day counts show how many Pins those settings allow each day. You can fill times automatically by choosing a daily count, first and last time, and weekdays, then adjust the generated rows. Save your changes. Changing queue times can move upcoming queued Pins to the newly available times, so review Queue afterward.

Pins from the same URL

Choose the minimum number of days between Pins for the same URL. This spacing works alongside weekly queue times and daily limits. It may leave a slot empty when the next Pin cannot fit yet. An automation can also specify spacing for Pins from each post. Review its scheduling step as well as the account settings when planning a batch.

Pause publishing

Pause publishing stops the account’s queued and scheduled Pins from going out. It keeps the queue. Turn publishing on resumes publishing; queued Pins may move to the next available times. Some pauses require you to fix a connection or other blocking issue first. The app shows the reason instead of allowing a simple resume.
Pausing Publishing and pausing an automation do different things. Pausing an automation stops new work, but Pins already scheduled can still go out. Pause Publishing too when you need the account’s scheduled Pins to stop.
Add Pinsearch tracking tags adds utm_campaign=pinsearch to destination links so you can identify these visits in your analytics. Existing tracking tags are kept. Optional emails cover a low queue and a daily published summary. Pinsearch also sends failure and reconnection messages, and shows queue alerts inside the app.

Export or delete publishing data

Download my data exports publishing data for the selected account. Delete all publishing data removes its drafts, queue and history from Pinsearch. The confirmation requires you to type DELETE PUBLISHING DATA.
Deleting publishing data does not delete Pins already on Pinterest. It also removes the Pinsearch records you may need to review later. Export your data first if you need a copy.
