Whether you're curating visual inspiration for a design project, building a content calendar, or just keeping your mood boards close to your workflow - embedding Pinterest in Notion is simpler than most people expect.
Here's precisely how to do it.
How to Embed a Pinterest Board in Notion (Step-By-Step Guide)
Step 1: Open an Embed Block in Notion
On any Notion page, type /embed and select the Embed option from the menu. An empty embed block will appear, waiting for a URL.
Step 2: Grab Your Pinterest Board URL
Head to Pinterest and open the board you want to embed. Copy the URL from your browser's address bar — it'll look something like:
Note: The board must be public. Private (secret) boards can't be embedded anywhere outside Pinterest - this limitation is a Pinterest restriction, not a Notion one.
Step 3: Paste and Embed
Back in Notion, paste the URL into the embed block and click "Embed link.” Your Pinterest board will render directly on the page.
Step 4: Resize to Fit
Click and drag the edges of the embed block to resize it. Make it narrow for a sidebar reference, or stretch it wide for a full mood board view. Notion treats it like any other block.
Want to Embed Multiple Pinterest Boards?
Repeat the same steps for each board - Notion has no limit on how many embed blocks you can add to a single page. Stack them vertically, or use a two-column layout to display boards side by side. Each block is independently resizable.
What About Pinterest Pins (Individual Images)?
Same process - copy the URL of a specific pin instead of the board URL, paste it into an embed block, and click "Embed link.” Notion will display the pin image with a link back to Pinterest.
Sharing Your Page After Embedding
Embedded Pinterest content is visible to anyone who has access to your Notion page. To control who sees it:
Click the Share button at the top right of your Notion page
Add specific people, or toggle on Share to web for public access
The Pinterest board itself stays on Pinterest; Notion just displays it. If someone clicks through, they'll land on Pinterest directly.
Want the same experience without the setup headache?
Notion's embed blocks work well - but they're still dependent on Pinterest's own embedding behavior, which can occasionally break after platform updates.
Bullet is a Notion-style workspace that handles embeds more robustly. Paste your Pinterest board URL into a Bullet page, and it loads cleanly - no extra steps, no debugging when things break.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I embed a private Pinterest board in Notion?
No - Pinterest doesn't allow secret boards to be embedded outside their platform. Only public boards can be embedded.
Does the embedded board update automatically?
Yes. The embed pulls live from Pinterest, so new pins you add to the board will appear in Notion automatically (with a short delay).
Can I view the embedded board on mobile?
Yes - Notion's mobile apps display embedded Pinterest boards, and the content scales to fit smaller screens.
Can I add a Pinterest widget instead of embedding the board directly?
Notion doesn't support third-party widgets natively. The embed block is the only built-in way to bring Pinterest content into Notion.
