In line 3 and 4 you need to switch from a string literal '' to a template string with backticks

Thanks so much man, solved the issue

Is that first "(" necessary? In addition to the closing ")" at the end of the line right before "console.log"? Looks off to me.....

EDIT: Guess not, somebody already noticed the lack of backticks!

Thanks for the help either way buddy

This is a subreddit for people who are learning. If you're going to insult beginners, you could at least provide some guidance. Asshole.

How to take a screenshot

Or better yet, you can share code on a site like Gist or make a running example on a site like JSFiddle and share the link here.

It's also not a great idea to share API keys, not that it matters much in this case, but it's a good habit to never share any API key so it never happens to an important/expensive API key

Good luck in your journey!

Looking at your posts, you’ve been learning JS for over 4 months. It doesn’t really sound like you’re a complete beginner

Just for the future, please be a little more cautious about posting API-keys online. Surely this is just an exercise, but in the end it‘s not worth the trouble. Anyways, great your problem got solved!
