Extract json data

[Rune Møllehøj Hansen]

Hey guys, i have this assignment from my school, and ive tried to solve it for hours now.. Im able to fetch the Json, but when i try and print the names i get undefined every time.
Don't know why, since IMO, ive declared the variables im trying to extract.

Best Regards.

Assignment

Execution in serial
Use fetch and async/await to complete fetchPerson(..)below. When implemented, each line in printNames() must be executed “sequentially”. Verify this with the debugger.

const URL = "https://swapi.co/api/people/"; function fetchPerson(url){  //Complete this function } async function printNames() {  console.log("Before");  const person1 = await fetchPerson(URL+1);  const person2 = await fetchPerson(URL+2);  console.log(person1.name);  console.log(person2.name)  console.log("After all"); } ]

What i have so far

const fetch = require('node-fetch') const URL = "https://swapi.co/api/people/"; async function fetchPerson(){    const response = await fetch(URL);    const result = await response.json();     }   async function printNames() {  console.log("Before");  const person1 = await fetchPerson(URL+1);  const person2 = await fetchPerson(URL+2);  console.log(person1.name);  console.log(person2.name)  console.log("After all"); } printNames().catch((e)=>{ console.log('There was an error :', e) });

Your code on line 13 that calls fetchPerson expects the data to be returned from that function. Yet, looking at the code of fetchPerson reveals that there is no data returned.

Mystery solved.

Nope, still returns undefined.

const fetch = require('node-fetch')
const URL = "https://swapi.co/api/people/";

async function fetchPerson(){

    const result = await fetch(URL);
    const data = await result.json()
    return data;
}

      
  
async function printNames() {
  console.log("Before");
  const person1 = await fetchPerson(URL+1);
  const person2 = await fetchPerson(URL+2);
  console.log(person1.name);
  console.log(person2.name)
  console.log("After all"); 
}


printNames().catch((e)=>{

console.log('There was an error :', e)

});

Output

Before
undefined
undefined
After all

I've fixed it. Thank you for your input.
