Axios Delete request with body and headers?

Question

I\'m using Axios while programing in ReactJS and I pretend to send a DELETE request to my server.

To do so I need the headers:

headers: {
  \'Authori         


        

Answer 1

Here is a brief summary of the formats required to send various http verbs with axios:

• GET: Two ways

  • First method

    axios.get('/user?ID=12345')
      .then(function (response) {
        // Do something
      })
    

  • Second method

    axios.get('/user', {
        params: {
          ID: 12345
        }
      })
      .then(function (response) {
        // Do something
      })
    

  The two above are equivalent. Observe the params keyword in the second method.

• POST and PATCH

  axios.post('any-url', payload).then(
    // payload is the body of the request
    // Do something
  )
  
  axios.patch('any-url', payload).then(
    // payload is the body of the request
    // Do something
  )
  

• DELETE

  axios.delete('url', { data: payload }).then(
    // Observe the data keyword this time. Very important
    // payload is the request body
    // Do something
  )
  

Key take aways

• get requests optionally need a params key to properly set query parameters
• delete requests with a body need it to be set under a data key
