Random Quote Generator - API's Acting Strange in CodePen?

1

Hello all. I am currently working on the random quote generator project. I’m using the following API: https://quotesondesign.com/api-v4-0/.

I’ve noticed a lot of other’s have had issues with getting API’s to work in CodePen. but each solution seemed different and I didn’t quite find a tweak that worked for me with out causing further errors.

Here is my current code below - loosely based on the sample on the API’s site:

The weird part is, when I go under the network tab under the chrome dev tools, I can see the json object with a 200 ("ok) status, but its not showing on my page when I apply the quote content to my h3 element.

The returned result is an array, and the property you’re trying to access is for an object inside that array.

Thanks for the pointing that out. It’s working as expected now after some changes :slight_smile:
