✅ Task:

Modify your Azure Function so that it texts the user back with a song.

[x] 1: Retrieve song url from a JSON object

const songs = {"GenZ":"https://open.spotify.com/track/0SIAFU49FFHwR3QnT5Jx0k?si=1c12067c9f2b4fbf", 
"GenY":"https://open.spotify.com/track/1Je1IMUlBXcx1Fz0WE7oPT?si=a04bbdf6ec4948b9", 
"GenX":"https://open.spotify.com/track/4Zau4QvgyxWiWQ5KQrwL43?si=790d9e3ef2ed408d", 
"BabyBoomers":"https://open.spotify.com/track/4gphxUgq0JSFv2BCLhNDiE?si=1abb329f2dc24f50", 
"Unknown":"https://open.spotify.com/track/5ygDXis42ncn6kYG14lEVG?si=84b49b41d09d4d11"}

[x] 2: Use ${} to quickly insert strings

[x] 3: Return the url with a personalized message in the body of the request formatted like

We guessed you're part of this generation: [insert generation]! Happy listening! [song link]`

[x] 4: Commit your updated code to song4u/index.js in the song4u branch, and only merge the pull request when the bot approves your changes!

🚧 Test Your Work

To test your work, try texting a jpg image to your Twilio number (with a face!). You should receive a text back that contains the required message format.

Example:

Sent from your Twilio trial account - We guessed you're part of this generation: GenZ! Happy listening! https://open.spotify.com/track/0SIAFU49FFHwR3QnT5Jx0k?si=1c12067c9f2b4fbf

Working with JSON

JSON has keys and values. In our case, the generation is the key, and the url is the value.

See if you can determine the url with this syntax:

let value = json_object[key]

Shortcuts with Strings

You might be used to concatenating strings and variables like this:

let string = "Hello " + name

That can get tiring, though. Try this syntax:

let string = `Hello ${name}`
