I am using IBM Bluemix to make a web service for a school project.

My project needs to request a JSON from an API, so I can use the data it provides. I use the http get method for a data set, and I am not sure if it is working properly.

When I run my code, I get the message:

Error: Protocol https: not supported. Expected http:

What is causing it and how can I solve it?

Here is my .js file:

// Hello.

//

// This is JSHint, a tool that helps to detect errors and potential

// problems in your JavaScript code.

//

// To start, simply enter some JavaScript anywhere on this page. Your

// report will appear on the right side.

//

// Additionally, you can toggle specific options in the Configure

// menu.



function main() {

  return 'Hello, World!';

}



main();/*eslint-env node*/



//------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// node.js starter application for Bluemix

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------



// HTTP request - duas alternativas

var http = require('http');

var request = require('request');



// cfenv provides access to your Cloud Foundry environment

// for more info, see: https://www.npmjs.com/package/cfenv

var cfenv = require('cfenv');



//chama o express, que abre o servidor

var express = require('express');



// create a new express server 

var app = express();



// serve the files out of ./public as our main files

app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));



// get the app environment from Cloud Foundry

var appEnv = cfenv.getAppEnv();



// start server on the specified port and binding host

app.listen(appEnv.port, '0.0.0.0', function() {

    // print a message when the server starts listening

    console.log(server starting on  + appEnv.url);

});

      console.log(My JSON is +x); });



    });

    });

        });

    });

});

Here is a print of the error screen I get:
