Hello @audrey ,

Thank you for guiding us through another great tutorial! Quick question about the challenge:

I received the “Expected declaration [in APIManager]” error next to Line2. Shouldn’t I have to wrap all (or at least, a piece) of the following code in a function to move forward in the challenge?

Line1: let delegateQueue = OperationQueue()
Line2: delegateQueue.name = “sessionDelegateQueue”
Line3: delegateQueue.qualityOfService = .userInitiated
Line4: apiManager.downloadsSession = URLSession(configuration: configuration,
delegate: self, delegateQueue: delegateQueue)

hi! those lines should go into SearchViewController’s viewDidLoad, to replace the second line:

apiManager.downloadsSession = downloadsSession

sorry for the confusion!
