Try It

Use this endpoint to submit the Pika /animate command to your Discord Pika channel. Results obtained as a callback via optional parameter replyUrl or by querying pika/jobs/?jobid=jobid endpoint.

It is important not to use the Pika account setup for API access for any purposes other than its intended use, such as executing /animate or any other Pika commands manually or in conjunction with any other automation tools. The useapi.net API internally tracks the usage of the Pika account, including the number of currently active executions. Using it for other activities may cause API to function incorrectly.

429 Too Many Requests

Wait in a loop for at least 10..30 seconds and retry again.

There are two possible cases for API response 429.
1. API query is full and can not accept new pika/animate requests. Size of query defined by maxJobs optional parameter. Wait in a loop for at least 10..30 seconds and retry again.
```
{
 "error": "Maximum of <maxJobs> jobs executing in parallel supported",
 "executingJobs": [
   "<jobid>",
   "<jobid>",
   "<jobid>"
 ],
 "code": 429
}
```
2. The API received an HTTP status 429 from the Discord API when it attempted to POST to the /interactions endpoint. Under normal circumstances, this should be a rare occurrence because the API is designed to strictly adhere to Discord rate limits. However, in certain scenarios, Discord may still issue a 429 response.
```
{
 "error": "Discord /interactions failed with HTTP status 429",
 "errorDetails": "{\"global\":true,\"message\":\"You are being rate limited.\",\"retry_after\":10}",
 "code": 429
}
```
