URL to complete the challenge not working

Hi all!
It’s my first time and I’m trying to start the Apis And Microservices Certification (300 hours) > How to Use package.json, the Core of Any Node.js Project or npm Package. I’m using Github to start developing the course. In this first step I have to create a package.json with author key:
{
“author”: “TestUser”
}

To finish this step I have to paste the URL so I use the package.json url from github. I get this result:
// running test
// tests completed

And an error: package.json should have a valid “author” key

What is the right way to check this?

Thanks you.

Make sure that you’re sharing the public url to your Glitch app. This is not the url that is in your address bar when you are editing.

Hi, I am having problems with this.

If i try the Glitch link on the previous page - i get an error that something went wrong fetching the fcc repository. I am also having no luck creating a new Glitch Project and cloning the fcc repo https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-npm.git. It creates the project but only has the readme.md file.

I tried cloning the repo and using this link https://github.com/RockLobster7/boilerplate-npm to submit into the challenge but I get this result:
// running test
// tests completed

help :frowning:

Hello everyone,
looks like i was using the wrong link on Glitch. FYI this is the correct one to use on the challenge:
