So instead of assigning the modified value back to "role", just modify it as you assign "msg".

let firstName = "Anna";
let lastName = "Terentjeva";
let role = "developer";
role = role.toUpperCase();
let msg = ${firstName} ${lastName}: ${role}.;
console.log(msg);

231,248 PointsYou're doing the same thing as the original poster by changing what is in "role". That's not what the instructions ask for. You should apply the method only when you are assigning "msg". Also, there should be no punctuation at the end of the string.
For future issues, always create a fresh question instead of asking one as an "answer". It will reach more students that way.
