# Copying a pin is not representative of typical user behavior on Pinterest.

# This script is intended to demonstrate how to use the API to developers,
# and to provide functionality that might be convenient for developers.
# For example, it might be used as part of a program to generate an
# account to be used to test an API-based application.
