How to acquire ndvi values using landsat-8

given the below posted request, and referring to Normalized Difference Vegetagtion Indeceswhen i try to execute it in request-builder it does not work, and when i try to run it in my code, i receive bad-reuqest.
i am trying to get the ndvi from landsat-8 which identified via the indentifier landsat-ot-l1.

please let me know what is wrong in the below posted request or what i am missing

This evalscript will work for you:

//VERSION=3
function setup() {
  return{
    input: [{
      bands: ["B04", "B05"]
    }],
    output: {
      id: "default",
      bands: 1,
      sampleType: SampleType.FLOAT32
    }
  }
}

function evaluatePixel(sample) {
  let ndvi = (sample.B05 - sample.B04) / (sample.B05 + sample.B04)
  return [ ndvi ]
}

It is sourced from the documentation site here. Please make full use of the examples contained in here as well as in the Customs Scripts Repository.

thanks

but is there any reason hinders the request posted above in my question from working? also, the evalscript you posted works for me for some satellite missions and does not work for others, such as sentinel-3 any reason for that please?

This question is being answered in another thread
