So I am trying to send data from canvas's api using a GET and use that information and send a POST from the same endpoint to discord using node fetch. I can receive data from canvas without issue and I console log to make sure I have to right data, but I can't seem to get any information to discord. I am using discords webhooks and I can't figure out where I am going wrong.
fetch(url + `courses/${course}/discussion_topics` , {
method: "GET",
headers : {
'Authorization' : 'Bearer <auth token>',
'Content-Type' : 'application/json'
}
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(data => {
console.log(data[0].id);
console.log(data[0].title);
console.log(data[0].message);
}
)
.then(fetch("https://discord.com/api/webhooks/893327519103746149/<webhooktoken>", {
method: "post",
headers: {
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: {content: 'hello world'}
}))
.catch(err => console.log(err))
});```
As mentioned in the comment, just in case you have some typo or misunderstanding.
Also, you need to JSON.stringyify your body.
Please try the example below:
fetch(url + `courses/${course}/discussion_topics`, {
method: "GET",
headers: {
Authorization: "Bearer <auth token>",
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(data => {
console.log(data[0].id);
console.log(data[0].title);
console.log(data[0].message);
})
.then(() =>
fetch(
"https://discord.com/api/webhooks/893327519103746149/<webhooktoken>",
{
method: "POST",
headers: {
Accept: "application/json",
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
body: JSON.stringify({
username: "Canvas-Bot",
content: "hello world",
}),
}
)
.then(res => res.json())
.then(data => {
console.log({ data });
})
)
.catch(err => console.log(err));
Another approach would be in async/await. I think it is cleaner.
(async function main() {
try {
const res1 = await fetch(url + `courses/${course}/discussion_topics`, {
method: "GET",
headers: {
Authorization: "Bearer <auth token>",
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
});
const data1 = await res1.json();
console.log(data1);
const res2 = await fetch(
"https://discord.com/api/webhooks/893327519103746149/<webhooktoken>",
{
method: "POST",
headers: {
Accept: "application/json",
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
body: JSON.stringify({
username: "Canvas-Bot",
content: "hello world",
}),
}
);
const data2 = await res2.json();
console.log(data2);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
})();
