Generating an Annotation Unique Identifier

Question

Hi, I'm attempting to generate highlight annotations with the annotations api, but I'm getting this error:

code: "INVALID_ANNOTATION"
message: "Invalid value of Annotations [\"Annotation id 3 is not having valid index. \",\"Annotation id 4 is not having valid index. \"]

How do I generate a valid identifier for an annotation?

Thank you!

Hi @Robert22788616336o

Thanks for using PDF Embed API. This error occurs when the annotation JSON input has invalid page number. index refers to page number here. For example, PDF has 5 pages and index >=5 is passed. It follows zero based indexing. Please try this out and let us know in case of concerns.
