Managing a Pinterest account can get overwhelming, especially if you’ve been making boards for years.

Whether you’re cleaning up for a rebrand or just decluttering, Redact gives you full control over your Pinterest content. Here’s how you can bulk delete Boards with just a few clicks.

Please note – mass deleting your Pinterest posts requires a Redact Premium subscription. You can try Redact for free on Twitter/X, Discord, Reddit and Facebook!

Why Mass Delete Pinterest Content?

Even if you don’t care about how Pinterest is using your data, old Boards can drag down your Pinterest profile – especially if you’re trying to rebrand or improve engagement. Redact helps you:

  • Remove outdated or irrelevant Boards
  • Delete low-follower, low-engagement, poorly performing boards
  • Clean up your Pinterest page quickly, without manual work
  • Start over with a clean slate

Mass Delete Pinterest Boards

Redact’s streamlined interface allows you to delete Boards in mass. By default, both options are selected, but you can choose to focus on just Boards for now.

This flexibility gives you total control over what gets removed, letting you keep what matters and scrap the rest.

Need to remove multiple Pinterest Boards or Pins at one time? Redact can mass delete both pins and boards with just a couple clicks of the mouse. On the settings screen within the app, choose what type of content to delete - boards, pins, or both. This is where you specify what Redact will target for removal. By default, both Pins and Boards are checked, and you’ll have to uncheck one if you don’t want that specific type of content to be removed. This is just one of the many different content filters our software offers you on your journey to a pristine online profile. Download Redact and try it out for free, experience the full scale of content removing options available to you.

Target Boards for Bulk Deletion by Date Range

Want to delete content from a specific timeframe? Redact lets you filter Boards by exact dates.

Whether it’s a few months or several years of Boards you want gone, just set the start and end dates, and Redact will handle the rest. You can even wipe your entire Board history from day one if needed.

If you want to bulk delete Pinterest content from a specific time period:

  • Set a Start Date (only delete content after this)
  • Set an End Date (only delete content before this)
  • You can easily select a specific month or year by clicking the labels
  • To clear date filters, click the red text reading “Reset”
Select what date you would like to delete Pinterest from

Use the calendar icon for quick navigation. Clicking the month title lets you switch views to pick a different month or year. Use the “Reset” button to clear selected dates.

Mass Delete Boards Using Keywords

If you want to clear content related to specific topics or terms, Redact’s keyword filter has you covered. Just type in one or more keywords, and Redact will find all Boards that match. This is perfect for clearing outdated trends or removing content tied to old campaigns or interests.

Redact can find and delete multiple boards or pins by keyword search. Enter your chosen keyword(s) in the keyword input field within the application, and click the add button to include it. You are able to have as many or as few keywords in this box as you wish. To remove a keyword, just click the “x” that is in line with the keyword. To clear all keywords, click the "clear all" button.

Delete Pinterest Boards Based on Pin Count, Follower Count, or Re-pin Count

Not all boards are created equal – some just don’t perform. Redact allows you to mass delete boards that fall below certain thresholds. Whether it’s boards with fewer than 50 pins, less than 100 followers, or minimal repin activity, you can set your limits and declutter effortlessly.

Specify the pin count range of a board to delete. For example, if a board has less than 50 pins, delete it. Or, any board with less than 10 pins that was created between the years of 2020 and 2021, delete it. The targeting prowess of the Redact Software is next level. Give it a try for free, what do you have to lose?
Specify the follower count range of boards to delete. This is a nice way to remove multiple boards at once that aren't performing up to par. For example, you could remove any board with less than 100 followers. This will keep your most important boards at the forefront of your page and allow them to continue growing.
Specify the re-pin count range of a board(s) to delete. If a board is getting less than a specific number of re-pins you deem sufficient, you can automatically cull those boards from your page. Don't let dead-end boards distract your fans from your most popular content! Use Redact to tidy up your Pinterest Page and remove dying content.

Bulk and Automatic Deletion of Pinterest Content

Once you’ve set your deletion filters, you can pick from 4 distinct deletion modes.

  • Preview – allows you to see the result of your filters without deleting anything. We recommend running this prior to a bulk deletion to ensure nothing is wiped that you want to keep.
  • Deletion – this mode will delete everything matching your filters. Make sure you’re certain of your filters; this is irreversable.
  • Select and Delete – this mode will present batches of content matching your filters, which you can easily delete via bulk selection.
  • Scheduled Deletion – lets you automate ongoing Pinterest content deletion on a regular interval; this mode lets you make your Pinterest content ephemeral and self-deleting based on parameters you set.

Take Control of Your Pinterest Profile

Redact.dev is the most comprehensive digital footprint management tool available. You can bulk delete Pinterest content, and automatically delete Pinterest content based on rules you set up. With our filters, your deletion can be as broad or precise as you want.

Not only that, but Redact supports a massive range of major social media and productivity platforms – like Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack and More.

Mass Delete Pinterest Boards FAQ

Pinterest does not offer a single remove all button for every board. You can delete or archive boards one by one. Bulk tools can automate batches with filters you control.
Deleting removes a board and its pins. Archiving hides the board and stops new saves while keeping content. Secret boards are visible only to you and invited collaborators.
Open Redact and choose Pinterest. Sign in, select Boards, then pick actions such as Delete, Archive, or Secret. Redact runs on your device and uses the minimum access needed to perform actions you approve.
Yes. Target boards, then include pin level rules such as remove all pins or remove pins that match certain keywords, dates, sources, or media types.
Use Preview to list matches with no changes, Deletion to remove all matches, Select and Delete to approve items, and Scheduled Deletion to run recurring sweeps.
Yes. Filter by Before, After, Between dates, pin counts, board names, or sources used inside pins. This helps remove low value or outdated boards first.
Group boards have shared control. Removing your own boards or pins works, but collaborator content and invites can follow different rules. Review each board’s permissions first.
Redact batches actions and spaces requests to respect limits. For thousands of pins, run smaller date slices or schedule several passes to keep the process stable.
Yes. Save an archive or capture important boards. Store copies offline or in encrypted storage so you can reference old ideas later if needed.
Deleting your board removes your copy of each pin. Other users’ saves remain on their profiles. External embeds and screenshots can also remain elsewhere.
No. Redact runs on your device and uses the minimum access required to execute your actions. You can disconnect Pinterest from Redact at any time.
Yes. Secret boards hide your content from public view but keep the data. Use delete when you want the record gone from your profile entirely.
Yes. Save your filters and schedule weekly or monthly runs that remove outdated pins or boards based on rules you set.
Export data, run a small Preview, keep a whitelist of boards to keep, approve a short Select and Delete batch, then expand your ranges after you confirm results.
