Why is my script causing HTTP 401 (unauthorized) Error?

Asked by

The script:

local GlitchURL = "https://flightwarebot.glitch.me/" --Place the glitch project URL inside of the quotes
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Remotes = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Remotes")
local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService")
--Getting player's UserId
local UserId
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    UserId = player.UserId
end)
--Making sure we don't get nil value.
repeat
    print("UserId not found")
    wait()
until UserId ~= nil
local RoleId
local function rankUser(UserId, RoleId)
    HttpService:GetAsync(GlitchURL.. "ranker?userid="..UserId.."&rank="..RoleId) --Error occurs at line 17.
end



Remotes.Fighter.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    RoleId = 5
    rankUser(UserId, RoleId)
    player:Kick("You have been ranked.")
end)
Remotes.Airline.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    RoleId = 2
    rankUser(UserId, RoleId)
    player:Kick("You have been ranked.")
end)
Remotes.Stunt.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    RoleId = 4
    rankUser(UserId, RoleId)
    player:Kick("You have been ranked.")
end)
Remotes.Ground.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    RoleId = 6
    rankUser(UserId, RoleId)
    player:Kick("You have been ranked.")
end)
Remotes.Cargo.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player)
    RoleId = 3
    rankUser(UserId, RoleId)
    player:Kick("You have been ranked.")
end)

I have no idea why this happens. Please help. All and any is appreciated.

That website returns a 404 when trying to load it, make sure it is online before you start asking what's wrong. And other than that make sure the code on glitch is setup properly because that's most likely what is causing the 401.

Hello. Thank you for answering! Issue was because I accidentally jitter clicked, and messed up the name. This messed the link. 2Loos 168 — 4y

wrap the function side a pcall sinse youre making a request outside roblox so like

pcall(function()
    HttpService:GetAsync
end)

also, go into game settings and make sure the game has http and api access enabled
