Hello,
Note that the pick ID you receive after submitting data only confirms that your request was received and processed. It does not guarantee that the processing was successful.
To check the outcome of a pick, you need to use the pickstatus endpoint. This requires two pieces of information:
- The pick ID that was returned by the postpick endpoint.
- The bot ID that was used to authorize the original pick request.
If you encounter the error message "PICK NOT FOUND OR INVALID KEY" when using the pickstatus endpoint, it indicates one of two possibilities:
- You have entered an incorrect pick ID.
- You have entered an incorrect bot ID.
A common reason for this error is providing an incorrect bot ID during the initial postpick request. If the bot ID is wrong at that stage, the system will be unable to locate your pick when you subsequently call the pickstatus endpoint.
Therefore, ensure you are using the correct bot ID both when making the initial postpick request and when checking the status with the pickstatus endpoint.
