How to fetch data from Api which is coming from php file

Time:09-23

I am trying to get data from an api but the thing is the api has php extesnion. I am quite new to this thing and I really dont understand why i am not getting the data by using result.data.

var formdata = new FormData();
formdata.append("stock_symbol", "PPL");

var requestOptions = {
    method: 'POST',
    body: formdata,
    redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("https://dev-api.sarmaaya.pk/3.0/company_fundamentals.php", requestOptions)
    .then(response => response.text())
    .then(
        result => {
            console.log('result', result.data)

        }

    )

    .catch(error => console.log('error', error));

It does not matter from where you are fetching the data you are making a silly mistake, the data format is in json but you are forcibly converting it to raw text so you have to replace result.data with only result e.g.

var formdata = new FormData();
formdata.append("stock_symbol", "PPL");

var requestOptions = {
    method: 'POST',
    body: formdata,
    redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("https://dev-api.sarmaaya.pk/3.0/company_fundamentals.php", requestOptions)
    .then(response => response.text())
    .then(
        result => {
            console.log('result', result) //now works
        }
    )
    .catch(error => console.log('error', error));

for request.data to work you have to replace response.text() with response.json()

var formdata = new FormData();
formdata.append("stock_symbol", "PPL");

var requestOptions = {
    method: 'POST',
    body: formdata,
    redirect: 'follow'
};

fetch("https://dev-api.sarmaaya.pk/3.0/company_fundamentals.php", requestOptions)
    .then(response => response.json())
    .then(
        result => {
            console.log('result', result.data) //now it works
        }
    )
    .catch(error => console.log('error', error));
