Otter ProGe::ensure- package throws error

[Aret Ozdemirci]

when I use proget::ensure-package I get jsonreaderexception error.? The type of feed didn't matter. if I use nuget.exe, it's installed successfully.
am I missing something? here is the error.

Based on the error message, it looks like you are pointing to an invalid endpoint.

Note this will only work with a Universal feed type; not NuGet feed type.

Can you share the OtterScript of the plan that's causing the error?

Thank you Alana,
this makes sense. I was trying to use a NuGet feed type. This answers my question.
