Cannot pass the test for this problem

JavaScript
1

My solution for the problem is the following:

var express = require('express');
var app = express();

const mySecret = process.env['MESSAGE_STYLE'];
let response="Hello json";
if(mySecret==="uppercase"){
  response=response.toUpperCase();
}else{
  response="Hello json";
}

app.get("/json", function(req,res) {
  res.json({"message": response});
 
});

when I run the code on replit and use the domain provided to route to the “/json” the message returned is uppercase as described but I can not seem to pass the test and that’s what I am confused about.

help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the response,
I have updated my question to describe more about the problem I am facing.
along with the code, I have also added the MESSAGE_STYLE key value to replit secrets section.

iirc for the solution to pass, you had to do the conditional process inside the get callback.
