I keep getting this error when trying to teleport a player when they touch a part: exception while signaling: Cannot Teleport in the Roblox Studio

here is my code that is placed in a script. 

local TeleportService = game:GetService("TeleportService")
local id = 2847968130 
 
function onTouched(hit)
    local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
    if player then
        TeleportService:Teleport(id, player)
    end
end
 
script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouched)

I have tried testing using servers pressing F7 but I still get this error. Please help!

Dont use ":connect", its deprecated. (this won't fix the script, its just a good practice)

I kind of copied the example from developer.roblox.com so i'm really confused why it does not work

This shouldn’t have much to do with your code. It’s stated in the Error itself, you cannot use the TeleportService in the Studio. I’m unsure why this is unsuccessful in-Game though.

OP is probably using studio servers. Launch a real server. Not in studio.

What do you get in Roblox Player? Press F9 to see the logs

Or /console in the Chat. Select the Server output
