Pinterest request failed: ${raw.__fetchError}

Error message

Pinterest request failed: ${raw.__fetchError}

What it means

pinterestResourceFetch runs an in-page fetch against Pinterest's /resource/ endpoints via Chrome. When the injected script reports a __fetchError (network failure, aborted request, or script exception), the library wraps it as CommandExecutionError prefixed 'Pinterest request failed'.

Solutions

1. Check network connectivity and that pinterest.com loads in the attached Chrome window
2. Retry the command; transient connection failures often clear
3. Disable proxy/VPN or corporate blocking for pinterest.com
4. Reload the Pinterest tab in Chrome so the page is in a healthy state before retrying

if (!navigator.onLine) throw new Error('offline: Pinterest calls require connectivity');
const ok = await fetch('https://www.pinterest.com', { method: 'HEAD' }).then(r => r.ok).catch(() => false);
if (!ok) throw new Error('pinterest.com unreachable');

null

try { await cmd.board(target); } catch (e) { if (/Pinterest request failed/.test(e.message)) { await sleep(2000); return cmd.board(target); } throw e; }

When it happens

Trigger: Chrome page is offline or Pinterest is unreachable; page.evaluate throws and the failure is surfaced as __fetchError; the resource URL/body fails to fetch due to DNS, TLS, or connection reset; navigating away mid-request.

Common situations: Laptop lost Wi-Fi mid-command; corporate proxy blocks pinterest.com; Chrome tab crashed or was closed during the call; Pinterest served a captcha/interstitial that broke the in-page fetch.
