Error 401 treehouse issues

treehouse:~/workspace$ node app.js chalkers-not
There was an error getting a profile for chalkers-not (401)
treehouse:~/workspace$ ^C

From halfway through until now keeps giving me this. I think this is more on the backend of the treehouse and the code is exactly like the lesson but keep getting this. Strange thing is that it works on the quizzes but not on the virtual machine one

Treehouse seems to have relocated the profiles since the video was made, use this new location in the request:

https.get(`https://teamtreehouse.com/profiles/${username}.json`, ...

You might want to let the Support staff know so they could at least put a mention in the teachers notes.

Yeah, because when working with all of Chalker's videos I kept getting "Unauthorized" to access profiles. Just finished the Node.Js project and still says unauthorized access. I will let the support staff aware. Thank you!
