Having issues with in-game group ranks

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Output keeps reading an error “GroupService:GetGroupInfoAsync() failed because HTTP 404 (Not Found).” I couldn’t find much on the web that referenced this error. Other solutions say that in-game group ranks won’t work on the local test server inside of Roblox Studio, but it would work in the regular game server.

local groupService = game:GetService("GroupService")

local colors = {
	Member = Color3.fromRGB(79, 255, 135),
	Respected = Color3.fromRGB(40, 21, 255),
	Moderator = Color3.fromRGB(255, 179, 25),
	Artist = Color3.fromRGB(255, 98, 248),
	Modeler = Color3.fromRGB(255, 244, 79),
	Administrator = Color3.fromRGB(136, 0, 255),
	CEO = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 4)
}

function updateTag(char, inGroup, groupRole)
	if char and char:FindFirstChild("Head") then
		
		local roleGui = char.Head:FindFirstChild("RoleGui")
		
		if inGroup then
			if not roleGui then
				roleGui = game.ReplicatedStorage.RoleGui.RoleGui:Clone()
				roleGui.Parent = char.Head
			end
			
			roleGui.TextLabel.Text = groupRole
			roleGui.TextLabel.TextColor3 = colors[groupRole] or roleGui.TextLabel.TextColor3
			
		else	
			
			if roleGui then
				roleGui:Destroy()
				
			end
		end
		
	end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		
		spawn(function()
			while true do
				local groups = groupService:GetGroupInfoAsync(player.UserId)
				
				local inGroup = false
				local groupRole
				
				for key, group in pairs(groups) do
					if group.Id ==  9248561 then
						inGroup = true
						groupRole = group.Role
						break
					end
				end
				
				updateTag(char, inGroup, groupRole)
				
				wait(5)
			end
		end)
		
	end)
end)

It’s a normal script located inside the ServerScriptService.

**Edit: uploaded wrong script

Could you provide the script that is giving the error? This one is a DataStore script and doesn’t use GroupService at all.
