Error: Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: Cannot read property 'customerName' of undefined

My JSON file looks like this:

{
    "total": 3,
    "items": [
        {
            "id": "01",
            "data": {
                "customerName": "Jhon",
                "description": "..some content..",
                "price": "25000"
            },
            "status": "Yes"
        },
        {
            "id": "02",
            "data": {
                "customerName": "Mark",
                "description": "..some content..",
                "price": "30000"
            },
            "status": "No"
        },
        {
            "id": "03",
            "data": {
                "customerName": "Smith",
                "description": "..some content..",
                "price": "15000"
            },
            "status": "No"
        }
    ]
}

I am displaying the them in an component called list like this:

ts

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { ContactService } from '../contacts.service';
import { ICustomer } from '../models';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-list',
  templateUrl: './list.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./list.component.css']
})
export class ListComponent implements OnInit {
  public allCustomers: any = [];
   public customers: any = [];
  constructor(private myService: ContactService) { }

  public async ngOnInit(): Promise<void> {
    this.allCustomers = await this.myService.getCustomers('');
    this.customers = this.allCustomers.items;
    console.log( this.customers.data.customerName);
  }


}

template

<div *ngFor="let customer of customers">
    <p>{{customer.data.customerName}}</p>
    <p>{{customer.data.price}}</p>
</div>

Now i am able to display the values(customerName, price ..) in template:

enter image description here

But when i log and see the same values(customerName, price ..), showing as undefined.

enter image description here

I am unable find what went wrong.

this.customers is an array element.

Use forEach() to list each element. Array.prototype.forEach()

this.customers.forEach(function(element) {
    console.log(element.data.customerName);
});

you are returning an array of objects, knowing that array index starts from zero. This will work

console.log(this.customers[index].data.customerName);

Change the "index" to either 0,1,2 to get the customerName of the first,second or third object respectively

You have that error because you are accessing array value by object

console.log( this.customers.data.customerName); // this are array value

so if you want to see the data you have to do like this

 console.log( this.customers[0].data.customerName); // this are array value

Use the Safe Navigation Operator to handle the undefined error

<div *ngFor="let customer of customers">
    <p>{{customer?.data?.customerName}}</p>
    <p>{{customer?.data?.price}}</p>
</div>
