What is incorrect in the code?
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
path(r"^accounts/", include("django.contrib.auth.urls"))
]

You're using path but you haven't imported it yet. However, this challenge has already imported url for you. You'll probably have to work with that instead to make this pass. Also, from what I can see, it looks like they're asking for these included paths to be mapped to a specific path of r"^".
I'd recommend taking a quick glance at these two versions of the docs below to see how Django has offered path as a syntactically simpler version of url. Note where regex is and is not used.
Hope this helps!
