TypeError: data.forEach is not a function

Question

This is my code:

$.ajax({
    url: \"some_url/\",
    type: \"GET\",
    dataType: \"json\",
    success: function(data){
        console.log(data);
                 


        

Answer 1

It is a case where your data response looks like an array but it is a string. If you have access to the API you're connecting to you can ensure the response it sends out is an array but if not simply parsing the data response using JSON.parse() should do the trick.
