app.post(“/search”, async (req,res)=>{

    const result = await axios.get(API_URL + keywords + locationName,{ 
        auth:{ username: API_KEY,
            password:""
        } 
        });
 //Unsure how to send big long query prams 
    console.log(JSON.stringify(result.results));
    res.render("index.ejs", { content: JSON.stringify(result.data)});
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error.code);
    res.render("index.ejs",{ contnet: JSON.stringify(error)});
} 

});

This is the code I’m running in the hopes to get a response from Reeds API.

But I keep getting 401 error code.
On the docs it says I should use basic auth with username as my API key and password blank

Here’s the weird part which I can’t understand. I can use this same API call on postman and I get the response that I want but for some reason I can’t get it when I run on a local host.
