Get status not working?

[ghost]

So I took the code from some other thread that was answered..

And it comes up with this error:

await is only valid in async function

const status = await rbx.getStatus(await rbx.getIdFromUsername(username));

Before copy & pasting anything you see on the internet, be sure you understand what it does first. Read this article to understand more about async/await: https://anidiots.guide/other-guides/async-await.

Still confused..

is rbx.getStatus not a async function?

[suufi]

Yes and that's why you must use it inside an async function while awaiting it.

The issue is not rbx.getStatus, it has nothing to do with whether rbx.getStatus is an async function. The function _using async/await_ has to be async.
