this worked before i changed it into a remote event, Now i get this error any recommendations? this is the line im getting this error on local url = “https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/subscriptions?part=snippet%2CcontentDetails&channelId=” … channel_id … “&maxResults=10000000&key=”…currentKey

channel_id or currentKey is likely not a string.

this is the arguments with the remote event being fired so im not sure if i messed something up

Did you also include the player argument in the server script?
Also in your original post you used the ellipsis operator ... instead of the concatenation operator ..

Probably because you used the Player parameter of OnServerEvent:

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(channel_id, currentKey) -- this is wrong

RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player, channel_id, currentKey) -- this is correct

local channel_id = 0
local currentKey = 0

local url = [["https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/subscriptions?
part=snippet%2CcontentDetails&
channelId="]]..channel_id..[["&
maxResults=10000000&
key="]]..currentKey

Please format your code correctly in future, thanks & this should work, just make sure you change “channel_id” and “currentKey”.
