Problem getting response data from ebay API call

I want to fetch JSON data from eBay Sandbox using JavaScript

I tried getting it through CORS request (as it is a cross domain request) but it returns undefined. I tried lots of different code but I haven't found any solutions.
What I want to do is that fetch the products from eBay and display them in my Chrome extension.

Any help is appreciated.

You can send a GET request to the URL.

const http = require('http');

let url = 'http://svcs.sandbox.ebay.com/services/search/FindingService/v1?OPERATION-NAME=findItemsByKeywords&SERVICE-VERSION=1.0.0&SECURITY-APPNAME=NiraliAc-FlashSal-SBX-7d56b4536-d82a9262&GLOBAL-ID=EBAY-US&RESPONSE-DATA-FORMAT=JSON&callback=_cb_findItemsByKeywords&REST-PAYLOAD&keywords=harry%20potter&paginationInput.entriesPerPage=3&itemFilter(0).name=MaxPrice&itemFilter(0).value=25&itemFilter(0).paramName=Currency&itemFilter(0).paramValue=USD&itemFilter(1).name=FreeShippingOnly&itemFilter(1).value=true&itemFilter(2).name=ListingType&itemFilter(2).value(0)=AuctionWithBIN&itemFilter(2).value(1)=FixedPrice&itemFilter(2).value(2)=StoreInventory';

http.get(url, res =>
let body = '';
res.on('data', data => body += data);
res.on('end', () =>
console.log(body);
);
);


Reference error: require is not defined

XMLHttpRequest

I found a solution by making a CORS request and using the CORS Anywhere API from https://github.com/Rob--W/cors-anywhere/

var cors_api_url = 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/';
function doCORSRequest(options, printResult)
var x = new XMLHttpRequest();
x.open(options.method, cors_api_url + options.url);
x.onload = x.onerror = function() ;
x.send(options.data);

(function()
var outputField = document.getElementById('output');
new1();
function new1()
// e.preventDefault();
doCORSRequest(
method: 'GET',
url: url,
, function printResult(result)
//result contains the response
//write your code here
);
;
)();
