How to get your Mainnet endpoint and put it in the code

I’ve tried running a code that utilizes an arbitrage flash loan in the past on MetaMask, and it’s said “transaction failed”.

Apparently, it’s because it had a Testnet endpoint and I was trying to deploy on Mainnet, and I need a Mainnet endpoint in order to use Mainnet. What’s also apparent is that I need to get a Mainnet endpoint for myself.

But how do you get your Mainnet endpoint? And don’t you put it somewhere in the code or something?

I hate to be a bother, but I’m still waiting to hear a fix to the 404 error. I’m not here to waste time.

Maybe I just take this to the Infura support team?

you're supposed to use the endpoint in your code if you just visit it like that it will show an error 404, for example if you use web3.js or any other library to make requests and use the infura endpoint

web3 = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider(f'https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/{INFURA_API_KEY}'))
factory_contract = web3.eth.contract(address=factory_address, abi=factory_abi)
etc .........

This is what I have used in the code already and I still get that error:
const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider({url: 'https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/(API key is here, of course I'm not gonna share it)'})

This is another error I have been getting:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'JsonRpcProvider')
