I don't understand what to do on this challenge

app.js 
const https = require("https");
const request = https.get("https://teamtreehouse.com/chalkers.json", response => {
    let responseBody = "";

    response.on("data", dataChunk => {

    });

    response.on("", () => {
        console.log(responseBody);
    });

});

request.on("error", error => {
    console.error(error.message);
});

request.on("dataChunk", responseBody => {
  console.log(dataChunk);
});
