Failed to compile vue.js app due to axios get request

I have this seemingly simple vue.js component which causes the app fail to compile:

<template>
<div>
  <div v-if="token"> 
    u R LOGED IN {{userid}}
  </div>
  <div v-else> 
    Token not found
  </div>


</div>

</template>

<script>
import axios from 'axios';

export default {
  name: 'AboutMe',

 created: {
    axios.get('http://127.0.0.1:3000/profile/aboutme/somejibberish'  )
    .then( res => { 
      console.log(res);

    })
    .catch( error => {  
      console.log(error);
    })
  }

}
</script>

The error that I get is:

 ERROR  Failed to compile with 1 errors

 @ ./src/main.js
 @ multi (webpack)-dev-server/client?http://192.168.1.10:8080/sockjs-node (webpack)/hot/dev-server.js ./src/main.js

I have used axiom in other components in the same app without any issues so have no clue what could be wrong here? How can I fix it?

Answer

The created property needs to be a function, not an object:

import axios from 'axios';

export default {
  created() {
    axios.get(...
  }
}
