Tell us what’s happening:

Why is it saying that my locations array should have two values? I have tried a comma between them like you would see in a typical array, but that did not work.

Your code so far

Hi there and welcome to our community!

The error message may be a little misleading but you should indeed have a comma between the two objects in your locations array.
However, you are also missing a comma inside your second object, after the button text key/value pair.

Your code should pass if you add commas in both places.
