Getting an "Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0" when trying to get reviews

checking the response from the itunes url
const url = https://itunes.apple.com/${opts.country}/rss/customerreviews/page=${opts.page}/id=${id}/sortby=${opts.sort}/json; im getting this HTML :

 <body onload="return its.detect.openItunes('https://itunes.apple.com/us/store?ign-mscache=1');">
