Error: Request failed with status code 401 axios in React JS

I am creating a login page using Laravel API and ReactJS front end. I am using Axios in ReactJS to parse the username(email) and password. The API for login is http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/login which works correctly in postman form-data. But when I entered the email and the password in react front-end the echos is Error: Request failed with status code 401. This error throws by the catch function of axios. I am also using querystring npm also. So which throws this error?

My React JS code

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Button, Card, CardBody, CardGroup, Col, Container, Input, InputGroup, InputGroupAddon, InputGroupText, Row } from 'reactstrap';
import axios from 'axios';
import  { Redirect } from 'react-router-dom'
import querystring from 'querystring';


class Login extends Component
{
  constructor(props)
  {
    super(props);
    this.onClick = this.onClick.bind(this);

    this.state = {
      email:"",
      password:""
    }
  }

  onClick(event)
  {
    var self = this;
    var payload={
      "email":this.state.email,
      "password":this.state.password,
    }
    //axios.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/login', payload) .then((response) => {}
    console.log("1. Hello before axios.post");
    //axios.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/login', payload)
    axios.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/login', querystring.stringify({payload}))

    .then((response) =>
    {
      console.log("2. Inside axios response");
      console.log(response);
      if(response.data.code == 200)
      {
        //Set localstorage:
        const userDetails = {userName: this.state.email}
        localStorage.setItem('userDetails', JSON.stringify(userDetails));

        console.log("Login successfull");
        return <Redirect to='/Master'  />

      }

      else if(response.data.code == 204)
      {
        console.log("Username password do not match");
        alert(response.data.success)
      }

      else if(response.data.code == 401)
      {
        alert(response.data.success)
      }

      else
      {
        console.log("Username does not exists");
        alert("Username does not exist");
      }
    })

    .catch(function (error)
    {
      console.log("The error is : " + error);
    });
}
  render()
  {
    return (
      <div className="app flex-row align-items-center">
        <Container>
          <Row className="justify-content-center">

                    <InputGroup className="mb-3">
                      <InputGroupAddon addonType="prepend">

                      </InputGroupAddon>
                      <Input type="password" placeholder="Password" />
                    </InputGroup>
                    <Row>
                      <Col xs="6">
                        <Button color="primary" className="px-4" onClick={this.onClick}>
                          Login
                        </Button>
                      </Col>
                      <Col xs="6" className="text-right">
                        <Button color="link" className="px-0">
                          Forgot password?
                        </Button>
                      </Col>
                    </Row>
                  </CardBody>
                </Card>
                <Card
                  className="text-white bg-primary py-5 d-md-down-none"
                  style={{ width: 44 + "%" }}
                >
                  <CardBody className="text-center">
                    <div>
                      <h2>Sign up</h2>
                      <p>
                        Are you a new user to the Restaurant system? Hooray now , you can create an account...
                      </p>
                      <Button color="primary" className="mt-3" active>
                        Register Now!
                      </Button>
                    </div>
                  </CardBody>
                </Card>
              </CardGroup>
            </Col>
          </Row>
        </Container>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

export default Login;

The following is the Laravel API login code which requires the email and password

Laravel login API code

<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\API;
use Illuminate\Http\Request; 
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller; 
use App\User; 
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth; 
use Validator;
class UserController extends Controller 
{
    public $successStatus = 200;

    public function login()
    { 
        if(Auth::attempt(['email' => request('email'), 'password' => request('password')]))
        {
            $user = Auth::user(); 
            $success['token'] =  $user->createToken('MyApp')-> accessToken; 
            return response()->json(['success' => $success], $this-> successStatus);
        } 

        else
        { 
            return response()->json(['error'=>'Unauthorized'], 401); 
        } 
    }
}

Update

As Alex says here I changed console.log("The error is : " + error); as console.log("The error is : " + error.response); in catch function. It echos The error is : [object Object].

I was hitting GitHub API in my application and faced the same issue. My API access token had been expired so the API wasn't sending any results, that's why there was nothing to iterate in my app. I created a new token from settings of GitHub and used that while sending the requests. The issue was resolved.

This is correct and working code solution

The correct way to set headers in Axios 

axios.post('http://10.0.1.14:8001/api/logout',request_data, {
          headers: {
              'Content-Type': 'application/json',
              'Authorization': 'Bearer '+token
          },      
      })      
      .then((response) => {
        console.log('response',response.data)

      })
      .catch((error) => {
        alert('error',error.response)
        dispatch(userUpdateProfileFail())

      })

  // console.log('----cheers---------',data)
dispatch(userUpdateProfileSuccess(data))

You can post axios data by using FormData() like :

And then add the fields to the form you want to send :

let bodyFormData = new FormData();
bodyFormData.set('email',this.state.email);
bodyFormData.set('password', this.state.password);

And then you can use axios post method (You can amend it accordingly)

axios({
    method: 'post',
    url: 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/login',
    data: bodyFormData,
    config: { headers: {'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data' }}
    })
    .then(function (response) {
        //handle success
        console.log(response);
    })
    .catch(function (response) {
        //handle error
        console.log(response);
    });
