Performing POST Requests With Axios
We just need to customize the config object passed to the axios function for every type of HTTP request we want to make. POST request can be made using Axios to post data to a given endpoint and trigger events. To perform an HTTP request in Axios, we call axios.post().
Requirements:
- URL of the service endpoint
- object that contains the properties you wish to send to the server
axios.post('/endpoint', { your_request_object })
.then((response) => {
console.log(response);
}, (error) => {
console.log(error);
});
- The request can also be frame in such a way:
axios({
method: 'post',
url: '/endpoint',
data: {
//...your response object
}
});
