Made a functioning solution to change /json output, but not accepted by FCC

Tell us what’s happening:
I made a functioning solution, but because it doesn’t “tell the GET /json route handler” to “transform” the solution (i instead used a variable which i change using a conditional) it isnt acepted. What does it mean to “tell the Get route handler to transform the message”. I tried adressing the variable the get route handler is under (in my code, this would be messageSender) but that didn’t work.

Your code so far

The route handler is the anonymous function here:

app.get("/json", () => { ... here ... })

Maybe it’s saying you need to handle the transform inside that function. Your current solution has “holder” in the main scope block then passes it down to the function.

Thanks yet again for steering me in the right direction! I was very stuck and frustrated but I understand what they mean more now. Would’ve taken me way too long without ya.
