local SwingAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
SwingAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://6617680007"

UseEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
	
	local Char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	
	local Humanoid = Char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	
	if Humanoid then
		
		local AnimToPlay = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(SwingAnim.AnimationId)
		
	end
	
end)

The error comes from this line: local AnimToPlay = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(SwingAnim.AnimationId)

Remove .AnimationId, LoadAnimation expects an Animation Instance, also use Animator instaed of Humanoid since the latter is the deprecated method

local AnimToPlay = Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(SwingAnim)

Because you don’t have code to play it, after that line, include this

AnimToPlay:Play()
