javascript - ajax jquery simple get request

I am making this simple get request using jquery ajax:

$.ajax({
    url: "https://app.asana.com/-/api/0.1/workspaces/",
    type: 'GET',

    success: function(res) {
        console.log(res);
        alert(res);
    }
});

It's returning an empty string as a result. If i go to this link in my browser, i get:

{"status":401,"error":"Not Authorized"}

which is the expected result. So why isn't it working using ajax?
thanks!

It seems to me, this is a cross-domain issue since you're not allowed to make a request to a different domain.

You have to find solutions to this problem:
- Use a proxy script, running on your server that will forward your request and will handle the response sending it to the browser
Or

- The service you're making the request should have JSONP support. This is a cross-domain technique. You might want to read this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSONP
