I've been fetching some data from a private API with axios, but now I'm having a problem fetching data from one specific endpoint.
The interesting thing is that with the built in fetch API, I'm receiving 200 response, but the identical request with axios keeps retuning 401 error. Any idea what can be the problem?
This code works:
const upVoteCommentTwo = async () => {
console.log(localStorage.getItem("access_token"));
try {
const response = await fetch(
`https://exammple.com/comments/${commentId}/vote/up`,
{
method: "POST",
headers: {
"X-API-KEY": "XXX",
"Authorization": localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
}
);
console.log(await response.status);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
};
And this does not work:
const upVoteCommentOne = async () => {
console.log(localStorage.getItem("access_token"));
try {
const response = await axios.post(
`https://example.com/comments/${commentId}/vote/up/`,
{
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-API-KEY": "XXX",
"Authorization": localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
}
);
console.log(response.status);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
};
The problem is coming from axios's parameters. One valid way according to the doc and that seems to be working for most people according to this issue on GitHub is to call it like this:
const response = await axios({
method: "post",
url: `https://example.com/comments/${commentId}/vote/up/`,
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"X-API-KEY": "XXX",
"Authorization": localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
data: {},
});
const upVoteCommentOne = async () => {
console.log(localStorage.getItem("access_token"));
try {
const response = await axios.post(
`https://example.com/comments/${commentId}/vote/up/`,
{
//body:...if any
}
headers: {
"X-API-KEY": "XXX",
"Authorization": localStorage.getItem("access_token"),
},
}
);
console.log(response.status);
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
};
