We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Why are you using BEAM3?  It has not been supported for at least 10 years (probably closer to 20 years).  You need to revise your script to use one of the current technology beam elements (probably BEAM188).
