@ichsan2668 Answer the following two questions for me.

  1. What do the instructions say the response should look like when the environment variable MESSAGE_STYLE is equal to uppercase?

  2. What do the instructions say the response should look like when the environment variable MESSAGE_STYLE is not equal to uppercase?

#3
  1. the message in uppercase
  2. just message without changes

should I define a message variable first?

I try to change the environment to check if the else working, but the console.log still shows the one in the if function

well the problem is the page my-url/json not loaded, I think I miss some code or something

#4

Show me exactly what is supposed to be returned in this case as the response.

#5

“messages”: “HELLO JSON”

#6

No, that is not correct. Carefully read the instructions again. What data type should the response be?
