'do...while' Coding Challenge

I typed my code in and it's apparently wrong but the only response I get back is"Bummer: Try again!" What am I missing?

script.js 
// Display the prompt dialogue while the value assigned to `secret` is not equal to "sesame"
let secret;
do {
  prompt("What is the secret password?");
} while ( secret !== 'sesame' );

// This should run after the loop is done executing
while ( secret === 'sesame' ) {
  alert("You know the secret password. Welcome!");
}

Hey Dan,

Try this out!

let secret;
// Display the prompt dialogue while the value assigned to `secret` is not equal to "sesame"
do{
  secret = prompt("What is the secret password?");
} while(secret !=='sesame') {
  // This should run after the loop is done executing
  alert("You know the secret password. Welcome!");
}
