Failed to load animation with sanitized ID

Hello all, I am attempting to add some animations to a tool, but I have hit this error message that I can’t seem to find any helpful information about, and there’s no further way for me to debug:
16:20:43.283 :arrow_forward: Failed to load animation with sanitized ID rbxassetid://18872060417: AnimationClip loaded is not valid. (x2) - Studio

For some context, I uploaded this animation early yesterday, it’s been over 24 hours now. The place itself is owned by a group, I own the group. I have attempted to use animations both owned by myself, and owned by the group, none of which seem to work properly- they all fail with this same message.

Here’s my code, in case that’s the issue:
(dots for irrelevant code)

local tendAnimation = Instance.new("Animation")
tendAnimation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://18872060417"

...
elseif #possibleNeeds > 0 then
			local selectedNeedIndex = math.random(1, #possibleNeeds)
			selectedNeed = possibleNeeds[selectedNeedIndex]
			track = animator:LoadAnimation(tendAnimation)
end
...
track:Play()

This should be in #help-and-feedback

Oops… not sure how it got there. Thought I filed it in scripting support

make sure you’re using an animation you made. you can’t use animation ids made by others

The animation needs to be owned by the player or group that owns the game. This error can show up when you use an animation that doesn’t belong to you or the owner of the game.
