because you have space on “=”

local httpService = game:GetService('HttpService')
local placeId = 0000000000 --change this to placeId you want to get of the votes
local universeId = "https://api.roproxy.com/universes/get-universe-containing-place?placeid="..placeId -- gets universeId

local success, result = pcall(function() -- we put in pcall if somehow failed to get
	return httpService:GetAsync(universeId)
end)

if success then
	if result then
		local decode = httpService:JSONDecode(result) -- decode to lua
		local gameVotes = "https://games.roproxy.com/v1/games/votes?universeIds=%.f" -- format the string
		local success2, result2 = pcall(function()
			return httpService:GetAsync(gameVotes:format(decode['UniverseId']))
		end)
		
		if success2 then
			if result2 then
				local decode2 = httpService:JSONDecode(result2)
				
				print(decode2['data'][1]['upVotes'])
				print(decode2['data'][1]['downVotes'])
			end
		else
			warn(result2) -- warn if it gets failed
		end
	end
else
	warn(result)
end

I’m getting this error now

HTTP 400 (Bad Request)
#48

are you sure the place id is correct?

#49

It worked, Thanks for your help also Thanks @msix29 for helping.
Also @cristinaceline1 I have a question? How do I update it once it changes? because I don’t wanna keep looping.

You can’t really detect when it changes, but you can just make another http request every few minutes or so (60+ seconds recommended).

#51

What would happen If I make it every second?

#52

You’ll likely get an error like HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests).
