Create a new Pin with the Pinterest Javascript SDK

I'm trying to create a new Pinterest Pin with the PDK JS api (https://developers.pinterest.com/docs/sdks/js/).

PDK.pin({
    image_url: ImageUrl,
    note: Description,
    link: ShareUrl
}, function(res){
    console.log(res);
});

It makes the request but none of the params (image, link and note) seem to pass to the api. A working example of the pinterest share pdk working can be found on this website: http://www.vogue.com/13382189/fair-isle-sweaters-runway-christmas-style/

The syntaxe is more like this apparently:

PDK.pin( ImageUrl, Description, ShareUrl, function(){
  // Do whatever you like
});

image_url, note and link variables are passed as parameters and not as object elements. Also the callback is triggered whenever the window is closed and doesn't return any response, so there is no way to know if the image has indeed been pinned or not.

I found out that the site was making a pin like so:

window.open(
    'https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=' + data.pdkShareUrl + '&media=' + data.pdkImageUrl + '&description=' + data.pdkDescription,
    'share',
    'width=600, height=300'
);
