How do I handle errors in async/await with JSON?

Can you explain how to handle errors when using async/await with JSON?

Sure! When using async/await, you can handle errors using try/catch blocks. This allows you to catch any errors that occur during the asynchronous operation.

Can you give me a code example?

Absolutely! Here's a simple example:

async function fetchData() {
    try {
        const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
        const data = await response.json();
        console.log(data);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error fetching data:', error);
    }
}

This code fetches data and handles any errors that might occur.

What if the JSON response is not valid?

If the JSON response is not valid, the response.json() call will throw an error, which will be caught by the catch block. You can handle it accordingly.

Thanks! Is there a way to handle different types of errors?

Yes! You can check the error type in the catch block and handle different errors differently, like network errors or JSON parsing errors.
