       SOCIAL_AUTH_PINTEREST_KEY = '...'
       SOCIAL_AUTH_PINTEREST_SECRET = '...'
       SOCIAL_AUTH_PINTEREST_SCOPE = [
           'read_public',
           'write_public',
           'read_relationships',
           'write_relationships'
       ]

3. Enable the backend:

       SOCIAL_AUTH_AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
           ...
           'social.backends.pinterest.PinterestOAuth2',
           ...
       )
