Property ‘json’ does not exist on type ‘axiosresponse‘

by

The error message “property ‘json’ does not exist on type ‘axiosresponse‘” indicates that you are trying to access the ‘json’ property on an object of type ‘axiosresponse‘. However, this property does not exist on this type.

When using the Axios library in JavaScript or TypeScript, the response object returned by the Axios request is of type ‘AxiosResponse’, which does not have a ‘json’ property. Instead, you should use the ‘data’ property to access the response data.

Here’s an example to illustrate how to correctly access the response data using Axios:

    
import axios from 'axios';

axios.get('https://example.com/api/data')
  .then((response) => {
    const responseData = response.data;
    console.log(responseData);

    // You can do further operations on the responseData
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
  });

In this example, we are making a GET request to ‘https://example.com/api/data’. The response object is obtained in the ‘then’ callback, and we access the response data using the ‘data’ property. You can replace the URL with your own API endpoint.

If you are using TypeScript and want to avoid the type error, you can also specify the expected data type of the response using generics. For example:

    
axios.get('https://example.com/api/data')
  .then((response) => {
    const responseData = response.data;
    console.log(responseData);

    // You can do further operations on the responseData
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
  });

Replace ‘YourDataType’ with the actual type of your response data. By providing this generic type, TypeScript will infer the correct type for the ‘response’ object, and you will have intellisense and type checking for the ‘data’ property.
