Assuming the ProfileService API returns an appropriate object, why is the data state variable undefined when I attempt to log it?
NOTE: I am only having this issue in functional components; the same code works in a Class component.
export default function Id() {
const [data, setData] = useState({});
useEffect(() => {
console.log("Mounted.");
fetchProfile("123");
}, []);
const fetchProfile = (id) => {
ProfileService.getProfile(id).then((response) => {
if (response.status === 200) {
setData(response.data);
console.log("200 OK", data); // returns "200 OK undefined"
}
console.log("Called ", data); // returns "Called undefined"
});
};
return null;
}

The setter that is returned from a useState
is asynchronous. You won't see the change until the next time your component function is invoked (the change of state will cause that to happen near-immediately)
Of course, you know what the value you just set is...

When you tried to get a new state value at once after setting a state, you always will have a previous value.
