How to connect Pinterest and Motion
Create a New Scenario to Connect Pinterest and Motion
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Pinterest, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Pinterest or Motion will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Pinterest or Motion, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Pinterest Node
Select the Pinterest node from the app selection panel on the right.

Configure the Pinterest
Click on the Pinterest node to configure it. You can modify the Pinterest URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Motion Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Pinterest node, select Motion from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Motion.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Pinterest, Motion, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Pinterest and Motion integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Pinterest and Motion (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
