Trying to access JSON endpoint using Javascript with X-Auth-Token leads to error-CodePudding

I am trying to access a JSON endpoint using Javascript with X-Auth-Token but I’m keeping getting error. It’s JSON for a sports API and I’ve followed every instruction in the documentation and code seems to correct to my knowledge however, I can’t spot the problem.

var main = function() {
var url = "https://api.football-data.org/v4/teams/86/matches?status=SCHEDULED";
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("GET", url, false);
xhr.setRequestHeader("X-Auth-Token", "601a163917fe417da759316ced98462d");
xhr.send(null);
var data = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
return data;};

CodePudding user response：

You need to set the request mode to no-cors for it to allow cross-origin resource sharing.

Try doing this.

var myHeaders = new Headers();
myHeaders.append("X-Auth-Token", "your token");

var requestOptions = {
  method: 'GET',
  headers: myHeaders,
  redirect: 'follow',
  mode: 'no-cors'
};

fetch("https://api.football-data.org/v4/matches?status=FINISHED", requestOptions)
  .then(result => console.log(result))
  .catch(error => console.log('error', error));

Hope it helps.

you have to wait for a response from the server, XHR has an onl oad method for this

var data = null
var main = function() {
var url = "https://api.football-data.org/v4/teams/86/matches?status=SCHEDULED";
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open("GET", url, false);
xhr.setRequestHeader("X-Auth-Token", "601a163917fe417da759316ced98462d");
xhr.onload = () => { 
    data = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText) 
};
xhr.send(null);
}
