        well, that link works, so the data comes back, THEN you have to DO something with it

        because this is in the module, you will have to use the developers window
        npm start dev
        or
        npm start
        ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard

        then
        there are two tabs on the dev window
        console where messages are displayed (like console.log and Log.log from the code in the original post)
        and the sources tab, where you can step thru the code, line by line as it executes
        once on the sources tab, you have to find you code in the left nav tree, expand modules, …etc…

        to put a stop in the code, on the line

        var urlApi =
        

        click the number in the left side of the dev display, it will turn blue, meaning active stop.
        hit f5, refresh, and the page will reload and it will stop there, and u can examine the code and data
        and step ( the top half of an o shape), or right arrow, continue til next stop, if any

          @sdetweil I used this link https://stats.foldingathome.org/api/donor/Apia_Okorafor but after I replaced that link it doesn’t work.

              @Djninja926 to get the api request to work, I had to add a proxy handler

                      var urlApi = "https://stats.foldingathome.org/api/donor/Apia_Okorafor";
              	var proxyUrl = 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/'
              	fetch(proxyUrl+urlApi,

                  @Djninja926 sorry, I was trying different things, forgot that I changed the request function,
                  back to the original source

                  		var urlApi = "https://stats.foldingathome.org/api/donor/Apia_Okorafor"
                  		var proxyUrl = 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/'		// added
                  		var retry = true;
                  
                  		var dataRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
                  		dataRequest.open("GET", proxyUrl+urlApi, true);                      // changed

                      @Djninja926 figure out the data differences from the 1st api used to the new one, and how you have to fix the output format
