Using HttpService to GET avatar headshot from thumbnails.roblox.com returns nil

[strcturals]

The title describes my issue pretty well. I’m trying to retrieve an avatar headshot PNG from a player’s userId using the new API at thumbnails.roblox.com and then decode the JSON data; however, it’s returning nil. My code can be found below, any help is much appreciated!

	local success, errormessage = pcall(function()
		jsonData = HttpService:GetAsync("https://thumbnails.roblox.com/v1/users/avatar-headshot?userIds="..tostring(plr.userId).."&size=420x420&format=Png&isCircular=false")
	end)
	local data = HttpService:JSONDecode(jsonData)

Did you try printing the error message if success~=true?
I just tested it and got the following error message:

HttpService is not allowed to access ROBLOX resources

There is a forum post that may help with this (but I haven’t tried it)

"HttpService is not allowed to access ROBLOX resources" when not attempting to

Whenever I run the following code in my game (with other code of course) I get the error, HttpService is not allowed to access ROBLOX resources which is confusing me entirely on that I am not attempting to access the Roblox API. game.HttpService:RequestAsync({ Url="app.foxtrot.institute/API/quizPass/"..plr.UserId, Method="Get", Headers={ ["Token"]="tokenwouldbehere" } }) Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

You can’t make HTTP requests to Roblox APIs from Roblox without a proxy.

Why not use GetThumbnailAsync?

I specifically need a URL since I’m using it for a Discord Webhook embed.
