Answer 1

I have found out that you can cancel post request this way,i missunderstand this documentation part. In previous code,i have passed cancelToken to the POST data request not as a axios setting.

import axios from 'axios'


var CancelToken = axios.CancelToken;
var cancel;

axios({
  method: 'post',
  url: '/test',
  data: {
    firstName: 'Fred',
    lastName: 'Flintstone'
  },
  cancelToken: new CancelToken(function executor(c) {
      // An executor function receives a cancel function as a parameter
      cancel = c;
    })
}).then(()=>console.log('success')).catch(function(err){

  if(axios.isCancel(err)){

    console.log('im canceled');

  }
  else{

    console.log('im server response error');

  }

});
// this cancel the request
cancel()
