Unexpected JSON.parse scenarios when handling AJAX response in Vue.js with Axios
I've been working on this all day and I'm a bit lost with I'm prototyping a solution and I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer... I'm currently developing a Vue.js application using Axios for AJAX calls, and I'm running into an scenario where the responses from my API are not being parsed correctly. I expect a JSON response, but I keep hitting a `SyntaxError: Unexpected token '...' in JSON at position ...` when I attempt to use `JSON.parse(response.data)`. I've confirmed that the API returns valid JSON when tested with tools like Postman. Here's a snippet of my code where the scenario arises: ```javascript axios.get('https://api.example.com/data') .then(response => { console.log(response.data); // This logs the response correctly const data = JSON.parse(response.data); // Throws an behavior here }) .catch(behavior => { console.behavior('behavior fetching data:', behavior); }); ``` What’s puzzling is that if I directly log `response.data`, it seems fine, but when I try to parse it, it fails. I suspect it might be related to the way Axios handles the response data. My Axios version is 0.21.1 and Vue.js is 2.6.12. I’ve also checked the response headers, and the `Content-Type` is correctly set to `application/json`. Could the scenario be due to a configuration behavior or an unexpected format in the response body? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! My development environment is Linux. Is there a better approach? I'm working on a REST API that needs to handle this. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a simpler solution I'm overlooking? I'm on macOS using the latest version of Javascript.
