How to Easily Call APIs With Fetch and Async/Await in JavaScript

In today's video I'll be showing you how easy it is to call APIs (REST) using the Fetch API in JavaScript and Async/Await.
This is the way I typically call my APIs and provide authorization tokens or headers in the front-end (if appropriate).

good video, mate, I'm going to try to use some of this to do basic authentication on an open power automate or gappsscript endpoint for my browser extension.

What color theme are you using in this video? I like it so much.

[@dcode-software]

Hey it's my own VS Code theme - you can search for "dcode" to find it

[@LD-oq1co]

can someone explain why you probably shouldn't use an onClick handler on the element?

[@mharding7]

@Joaquin Ocampo Why? Vue, React, Alpine JS and everyother JS framework call functions from inline. Why is it a bad idea?

[@workrelated7632]

Super ❤️

Even if you get your API token from the database it'll be still visible in the dev tools if you have to send it through in the Headers. Am i wrong here?

[@sc1ss0r1ng]

It might be, not sure.
But when looking at fx. CZcams's info under Network in DevTools, I can see that my Authorization is a hashed key.
So no matter what, it might just be a good idea to hash it when returning it from the database.

[@tamas-pamas]

@@sc1ss0r1ng if the API accepts it hashed then it's OK...

[@dcode-software]

Sorry I should have made this clearer in the video. What I meant was that you let your back-end make the API call and then pass the result down to the front-end

Is it possible to request a tutorial? If yes, this is the story. So, I want to know how long a user is on a page. I know how to set an entry time var but I don't know how to set an exit time var and send the data to backend right before the user moves to other page. Please teach me how to do that. I tried to call a function with onbeforeunload but it didn't work for me.
