Objects are not valid as a React child (found: [object Promise]) trying to return swal

I am trying to conditional rendering when state is undefined, and i would like to show a sweetalert to show the user that he has not selected a client. But i am receiving this error:

Objects are not valid as a React child (found: [object Promise]). If you meant to render a collection of children, use an array instead.

Snippet:

const location = useLocation();

const ClientNotSelected = () => {
    return (
        <div>
            {
                Swal.fire({
                    title: 'Are you sure?',
                    text: "You won't be able to revert this!",
                    icon: 'warning',
                    showCancelButton: true,
                    confirmButtonColor: '#3085d6',
                    cancelButtonColor: '#d33',
                    confirmButtonText: 'Yes, delete it!'
                }).then((result) => {
                    if (result.isConfirmed) {
                        Swal.fire(
                            'Deleted!',
                            'Your file has been deleted.',
                            'success'
                        )
                    }
                })

            }

        </div>

    )
}


if (location.state === undefined) {
    return <ClientNotSelected />;
}

HOW I SOLVED IT:

I have created

const [clientSelected, setClientSelected] = useState(false);

and i checked it in the useEffect, with swal.fire inside here it doesnt give any problems/errors

useEffect(()=>{
    if (location.state === undefined){
        setClientSelected(false);
        Swal.fire({
            title: 'Are you sure?',
            text: "You won't be able to revert this!",
            icon: 'warning',
            confirmButtonColor: '#3085d6',
            confirmButtonText: 'Ok'
        }).then((result) => {
            if (result.isConfirmed) {
                history.goBack();
            }
        })
    }
    else{
        setClientSelected(true);
    }
})

below i have continued with the same condition but checking the new var clientSelected

if (!clientSelected) {
    return <h1>Select a client</h1>;
} else {
    return <Component />;
}

There is no need to create and render a component to fire the alert.

You can move Swal.fire() to your if statement.

Like this:

if (location.state === undefined) {
  Swal.fire({
    title: "Are you sure?",
    text: "You won't be able to revert this!",
    icon: "warning",
    showCancelButton: true,
    confirmButtonColor: "#3085d6",
    cancelButtonColor: "#d33",
    confirmButtonText: "Yes, delete it!",
  }).then((result) => {
    if (result.isConfirmed) {
      Swal.fire("Deleted!", "Your file has been deleted.", "success");
    }
  });
}
