Choosing Duplicate Boards in CSV Generation
If multiple boards share the same name, how can I control which board is selected when uploading a CSV without having to manually adjust it each time?

There are two options when uploading with CSV and selecting boards with the same number.
- Type the board name: If you have multiple boards with the same title (for example, a personal board and a group board), the CSV upload will match all boards with that name. This means you can pin to both simply by entering the board name in the selectedBoards column, just like before.
- Use a board ID for exact targeting: If you ever want to post to only one specific board when there are duplicates, you can use the board’s ID instead of the board name in the selectedBoards column.
How to find a board ID (generic steps):
- Open the board on Pinterest.
- Access the board’s advanced or developer view (often labeled something like “Browse user console”, “Developer tools”, or advanced settings).
- Look for the long numeric value associated with the board — this is the board ID.
- Copy that number and paste it into the selectedBoards column in your CSV.
