This was an error on my part, looks like Pinterest does not support SVG files. I apologize for my mistake.

For curiosity sake, are the sketches in the top view, or front, etc.? I’ve found I must export the top view only.

I was trying to export a SVG file directly to Pinterest, to a board I created. I was thinking the file could live on Pinterest server directly, and I could share those SVGs with anybody. It seems that SVG files are not supported(?), at least that is what I am reading. I could host my SVG files on a different platform, then take a PNG or JPG image of the SVG and use that image on Pinterest, with the Pinterest Pin containing the link to the server file. Basically, I misunderstood the use of Pinterest. It was my error, or ignorance/lack of knowledge.

Are you saying that you have been able to upload SVG files to Pinterest?

Thank you for educating me.

Respectfully,  
Trey
