API for Add a Friend Issues

Something is not quite working (or I'm making a mistake) as it concerns your API. Specifically trying to use the API for Add a Friend. I put in this code:

<?php require_once( JPATH_ROOT . '/administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/foundry.php' );



// This will render the necessary javascripts on the page header.

Foundry::page()->processScripts();

?>



<a href="javascript:void(0);" data-es-friends-add data-es-friends-id="<?php echo $userId;?>">Add a Friend</a>

I got this code by looking at your API at:
http://stackideas.com/docs/easysocial/developers/html/followers

But it does not function. I can click on the link but it does not add the user... all it does is say "cancel this request". Also once added as I try... The same text stays. Just seems like some things are missing in the API docs. Perhaps if you can point me in the right direction Ill figure out the other issues.

Thanks
