I've never heard of Pink Jasmine here in Singapore, but we have lots of Star and Variegated Star Jasmine [and something called Pinwheelflower], so i'll try to help.
From what i know, they seem to appreciate almost full sun. Can depend on where you are, but i think most jasmine are largely the same in care. Humidity wise i'd play it safe, about 50-60% minimum. Our avg humidity is 83%, but you don't have to go to that extent. Watering, we have lots of monsoon showers but it shuld be similar to other plants. When soil is half dry, can stretch to 70%. Temperature, keep tropical. I don't know what counts as that in the US, but i think abt 24°C shuld be gud [75.2°F]. But you need to keep away from vents, heaters, doors and AC, as they can either dry out the air, cause cold drafts or both. Jasmines seem to be quite sensitive temp and humidity wise.
That's abt it for care. With that i think as close to the kitchen window is best, with additional grow lights. Note that when in bloom, nighttime particularly, the smell is VERY strong. Sweet, yes, but if you have sensitive smell it might become an issue.

@Araceae thank you for the help and I’ll be sure to keep it out of reach for my pets!
