Use this interactive demo to learn how to connect social media accounts to your Hootsuite dashboard.

Quick summary

Adding social media accounts to Hootsuite lets you manage all your platforms from a single dashboard. This process takes just a few clicks — from the Social Accounts section to granting platform permissions.


Steps

  1. On Hootsuite's main dashboard, scroll down to the Social Accounts section and click 'Connect More Accounts'.
  2. Select the social networking platform you wish to add, then log in to your active account.
  3. Read the terms and grant the necessary permissions — for Pinterest, tap 'Give Access'.
  4. Once complete, the selected social media platform will be connected to your Hootsuite account.

📌 Why this matters

Connecting social media accounts to Hootsuite enables teams to manage multiple platforms — including Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter, and more — from one centralized dashboard. This eliminates the need to log into each platform separately, saving time and reducing the risk of missed posts or engagement. Hootsuite's streamlined account-linking process makes it easy for marketers and social media managers to scale their presence across channels efficiently. For businesses managing brand accounts at scale, centralizing social profiles in Hootsuite is a foundational step toward consistent, data-driven social media management.
