I am not able to retrieve content from API every time I reload my page it shows error, please see the attached image, I wanted to find the weather details using Weather API and right now I am using static latitude and longitude.
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import axios from "axios";
import { FaRegSun } from "react-icons/fa";
import "./stylesheets/stylesheets.css";
function WeatherApp1() {
const [weatherData2, setWeatherData2] = useState({});
const API_endpoint2 = `https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?`;
const API_key = `2a63c27d8ba0b0d14c9e5d59f39ee1ba`;
useEffect(() => {
async function getSecondObject() {
const response = await axios.get(
`${API_endpoint2}lat=28.4360704&lon=77.021184&units=metric&appid=${API_key}`
);
setWeatherData2(response.data);
}
getSecondObject();
}, []);
return (
<div className="mainDiv">
<div className="heading">
<h1>
<FaRegSun /> Weather
</h1>
</div>
{weatherData2.current.temp}
</div>
);
}
export default WeatherApp1;

Answer
The problem with your code is that you’re trying to render {weatherData2.current.temp} before the data is returned from the weather API and that’s why your weatherData2 will be undefined while rendering.
You can add a loading state for checking if the data is rendering or already rendered.
You can try below code:
import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import axios from "axios";
import { FaRegSun } from "react-icons/fa";
import "./stylesheets/stylesheets.css";
function WeatherApp1() {
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true) // Loading state
const [weatherData2, setWeatherData2] = useState({});
const API_endpoint2 = `https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall?`;
const API_key = `2a63c27d8ba0b0d14c9e5d59f39ee1ba`;
useEffect(() => {
async function getSecondObject() {
const response = await axios.get(
`${API_endpoint2}lat=28.4360704&lon=77.021184&units=metric&appid=${API_key}`
);
setWeatherData2(response.data);
setLoading(false) // Setting the loading state to false after data is set.
}
getSecondObject();
}, []);
return (
<div className="mainDiv">
<div className="heading">
<h1>
<FaRegSun /> Weather
</h1>
</div>
{/* Checking for loading state before rendering the data */}
{loading ? (
<p>Loading...</p>
) : (
weatherData2.current.temp
)}
</div>
);
}
export default WeatherApp1;
