I’m dipping my toe into scripting in automations and I’m having trouble with a simple script. I can’t seem to get a response even though the script works fine in postman. What am I doing wrong?

const http = context.getService(‘http’);

try {  
// GET request to auth endpoint  
const response = await http.getAsync(‘[https://readwise.io/api/v2/auth/](https://readwise.io/api/v2/auth/)’, {  
headers: {  
‘Authorization’: ‘Token XXX’  
}  
});

```
// Throw an error with the response status to check if the request was successful
throw new Error("Readwise API response status: " + response.status);

```

} catch (error) {  
// If there’s an error, throw it to display in the Fibery app  
throw new Error(error);  
}

Here’s the error: Failed to execute Action “Script”: Error: Readwise API response status: undefined

Don’t tell everyone, but we will shortly release a readwise integration 😉

In the meantime, any advice on what I’m doing wrong? For my other projects.

Basic script debugging tip: Start by creating a BUTTON for your script, because you’ll be able to see `console.log` outputs in your browser’s DevTools console.

When it’s working, move it to a Rule.
