TypeError: axios.request is not a function

Question

The following statement is giving me a err: TypeError: axios.request is not a function when I run the api.

const content = await axios.request(getData(id)).then(res => res.data)

Where getData returns a configuration object.

I am importing axios like so: import * as axios from 'axios'

Answer 2

When we look at axios type definition file, we can see that it uses default export. So, instead of using import * as axios from axios, the correct way is using import for default.

import axios from 'axios'

axios.request({ // params });

Tested in vscode, it didn't give compile error.

Hope it helps.
