# Pin post to profile

`POST /api/v1/posts/{postId}/pins`

**Rate limit:** 60 requests per 60 seconds. This is the **default shared quota** — it is shared with every other endpoint that has no dedicated limit, so requests across those endpoints all draw from the same budget.

---

Pins the specified post to the authenticated user's profile so it appears at the top of their feed. Users can pin only their own posts. The call is idempotent — pinning an already-pinned post succeeds silently.

## Path parameters

- `postId` string, uuid, required

## Headers

- `x-request-id` string, uuid, required
- `x-api-key` string, password, required
- `x-user-key` string, password, required

## Response `204`

Post pinned successfully

## Other responses

- `401` — Authentication required
- `403` — Requester is not allowed to pin the specified post (e.g., not the post owner)
- `404` — Post not found
- `429` — Too Many Requests — the shared rate limit (60 requests / 60s) was exceeded.
