Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Failed to fetch

Error message

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Failed to fetch

What broke

The error occurred when trying to fetch data from a server using a promise-based API. This usually happens when the server is unreachable or the URL is incorrect.

Why it broke

It broke because the fetch request could not connect to the specified URL, which could be due to network issues, a typo in the URL, or the server being down.

How to fix

To fix this, check the URL you are trying to fetch from for any typos. Ensure that the server is running and accessible. You can also add error handling to manage such cases gracefully.

Code fix

fetch('https://example.com/api/data').then(response => response.json()).catch(error => console.error('Fetch error:', error));
