# Uses the http.rb gem. Run "gem install http" on your terminal to install it
require "http"
require "json"
USER_ID = 1
response = HTTP.get("https://users.roblox.com/v1/users/#{USER_ID}")
body = JSON.parse(response.body)
puts "Username: #{body["name"]}"
puts "Display name: #{body["displayName"]}"
puts "User ID: #{body["id"]}"
puts "Description: #{body["description"]}"
