Axios Delete Request With Body And Headers?

Answer :

So after a number of tries, I found it working.

Please follow the order sequence it's very important else it won't work

axios.delete(URL, {   headers: {     Authorization: authorizationToken   },   data: {     source: source   } }); 

axios.delete does support a request body. It accepts two parameters: url and optional config. You can use config.data to set the request body and headers as follows:

axios.delete(url, { data: { foo: "bar" }, headers: { "Authorization": "***" } }); 

See here - https://github.com/axios/axios/issues/897

Here is a brief summary of the formats required to send various http verbs with axios:

• GET: Two ways

  • First method

    axios.get('/user?ID=12345')   .then(function (response) {     // Do something   }) 

  • Second method

    axios.get('/user', {     params: {       ID: 12345     }   })   .then(function (response) {     // Do something   }) 

  The two above are equivalent. Observe the params keyword in the second method.

• POST and PATCH

  axios.post('any-url', payload).then(   // payload is the body of the request   // Do something )  axios.patch('any-url', payload).then(   // payload is the body of the request   // Do something ) 

• DELETE

  axios.delete('url', { data: payload }).then(   // Observe the data keyword this time. Very important   // payload is the request body   // Do something ) 

Key take aways

• get requests optionally need a params key to properly set query parameters
• delete requests with a body need it to be set under a data key
