Hi,

The console in Workspaces is returning the wrong information when I attempt to call get in app.js via the console.

I have no idea as to what could be wrong.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can spot what is missing from my code:-)

When I run it, the console says SyntaxError: Unexpected token { on line 30 of profile.js.

You forgot something. Can you spot it?

Yep, that was it, and yes on to the next error. I'm going to only help lead you to debug this yourself, using the same logic you will develop to solve these issues yourself.

So, onto the next error. What does it say? I see printError({message" "There was an error getting the profile for " + user SyntaxError: Unexpected string If you look at the console, it's actually pointing to where the error is at. Unexpected string also tells us we probably messed up with our quote marks. Do you see the syntax error? It's in the console and where I copied the text over.

You got it! We all have these problems, lol. Have fun with it. I just went through these lessons myself a few days ago.
