I’m making a Weather App, and I want to graph out hourly weather(24 hours), with [quickchart.io](http://quickchart.io). It isn’t accepting the URL I’m stringing together.  
Here’s my code:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/9/b/9b55241fb1610ccb997233c988f3f9f6388dd24e.png)

The error I’m getting:  
Chart error: Invalid or unexpected token - 1:81

Any idea what I can do to make it work?  
Thanks.

Can you try output that URL to a label rather than the web api block @codeswept ?

Is it valid JSON? I think there’s an issue with the string that says “text” are you missing a “:”?

This is not a Web API URL, it is the URL for a web viewer.

If you share the entire URL you are trying I could help!

Also, if you do the same with Ian from quickchart, you’ll get superior support though it may take a few days.

You can redirect your url to text input and copy the url to a notepad and try fixing it.

Pick up a working URL from [quickcharts.io](http://quickcharts.io) and compare to fix the issue. You can even ident your link , [quickcharts.io](http://quickcharts.io) does it automatically for you. Mostly issue occurs when you are missing with curly braces or brackets . Indentation will help identify the same.

Before updating the url on app , first ensure that the link is working. This will reduce lot of efforts and rework. Hope this helps.
