React - Axios - PATCH request

In this article, we would like to show you how to make Axios PATCH requests in React.

Note: it is required to add external library to run below example, so use:

npm install axios

Axios PATCH request example

In the example below, we use async-await, but you might as well do it on promises.

Note: we are making a request to jsonplaceholder, so the example will work when you copy it.

import React from 'react'
import axios from 'axios'

const App = () => {
    const userToPatch = {
        title: 'foo',
    };

    const handleClick = async () => {
        const response = await axios
            .patch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1', userToPatch)
            .catch((error) => console.log('Error: ', error));
        if (response && response.data) {
            console.log(response);
            console.log(response.data);
        }
    };
    return (
        <div>
            <button onClick={handleClick}>Click to send PATCH request</button>
        </div>
    );
};

export default App;
