Description

I am utilizing the JS framework to send a sell request. I initially authenticate with a token, which is tossed in correctly. When I run a request not needing an account, the request is fine and works. If the account is needed it fails as the framework does not fill in an account url for the request. The authorization token is filled in and used with the authentication.

Code being executed:

var Robinhood=require('robinhood')(credentials, function (){});
Robinhood.place_sell_order({
        account:accountString,
        type:'market',
        quantity:quantity,
        bid_price:212.02,
        instrument:{
            url:await get_stock_url(ticker),
            symbol:ticker
        }
    },
function (error, response, body){
            if(error){
                console.log(error);
            }else{
                console.log(body);
            }
        }
    );

Expected result

A sell request for 1 share of MSFT at $212.02 is executed.

Actual behaviour
