Monitoring / Troubleshooting Gimkit Creative and Gimkit using Inspect Element

I ran a POST request to https://gimkit.com/api/cosmos/purchase-item
using the JSON code {"cosmeticId":"sticker_gimgulp"} and it ended up with 401 code, denied. I then put my headers in and it popped this 500 message up:

{
    "message": {
        "text": "You already own this item."
    }
}

So, I decided to change the item ID to something else, and it timed out on me.

I found it times out if I try to buy a Gim with not enough money by sending an API request.

In fact, it times out with every ID I try to put.

But, can you try to buy sticker_gimgulp with the API?

To do this:

  1. Open Inspect Element >> Network
  2. Copy the Raw of your request headers.
  3. GO to https://reqbin.com/post-online
  4. Type what I did above, sending an API request to Gimkit.com/api/cosmos/purchase-item
  5. Use the cosmetic id gim_gulp using the JSON.
  6. Go to headers and paste everything in the headers tab of the tool.
  7. Remove the POST / GET part.
  8. Run the API request. I have a theory it would buy the item for you.

Update: I discovered in the source codes, character IDS I can try to buy.
