Why does my API call work in chrome but not in my code?

Question

I'm trying to call the Binance API to get the LTC price in BTC and I tested the link on my browser "https://api.binance.com/api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC" How do i get the json file from that link into my javascript file?

$(document).ready(function() {

var url = 'https://api.binance.com/api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC';

$.ajax( {
    url: url,
    dataType: 'jsonp',
    type: 'GET',
    success: function(data) {
            console.log(data); //returns nothing
        }
});

})

As mentioned in other answer, there is CORS issue. So you can try with proxyURL from client side as below,

$(document).ready(function() {

var url = 'https://api.binance.com/api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC';

const proxyURL = "https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/";
$.getJSON(proxyURL + url, function(playerData) {
  console.log(playerData);
});
});
