"alt": "Within a vertical boxlike rectangle the background is of a lush forest. A forest is a vast, outdoor living room filled with towering wooden pillars. It smells of damp earth, pine, and sweet decaying leaves. You hear the soft crunch of twigs underfoot and birds singing from every direction. In the centre of the rectangle there is a hand giving the middle finger gesture in flames and on the finger there is a USA political party elephant symbol ring. The middle finger gesture is a rude hand sign that means "screw you". To make it, you close your hand into a fist, then you point only your middle finger straight up in the air. A flame is a powerful, directional wave of warmth that feels heavy and intense on your skin, getting sharper the closer you move towards it. The written text above the middle finger says - pick a finger. The written text at the top centre of the rectangle says - it’s climate change and the written text at the bottom centre of the rectangle says - not Canada.",

}Response Modifications
We have a few URL options you can provide to modify the API response. If you have any suggestions let us know.
&convert_numeric=VARIABLE
This option will turn an array into a numeric response instead of KEYs when provided with the variable to modify. It will only work on main level variables at this time for example in the call endpoint.hey.cafe/api/account_conversations?query=anthony&convert_numeric=conversations.
&error_boolean=true
Return all responses in system_api_error as a boolean true or false only. If there is an error message when this is active it will be provided in system_api_error_message.
&error_no_http=true
Do not modify the HTTP response code when any error response happens, keep the HTTP response code as 200.
Flags
Some requests have rules that must be followed, they are done on the API end and will be automatically validated and if failed you will get an error message.
Needs Session
On fail will return needs_session and if this falg is set the request will only respond if made by a valid user session or API session.
Needs Agecheck
On fail you will get the response of needs_agecheck and this happens if request is made from an IP in a country or region that has an age verification law. To use this the IP must not be based in an age check region or the user must do the age verification in settings first.
