Thanks for posting your code. I see a couple of issues in your code:

1. Typo in the search_for_artist function. You have a typo in the type parameter. It should be 'artist' instead of 'atrist'.
2. Incorrect function call in the last line. You are passing the string 'token' instead of the actual token variable.
