Fetch vs. AjaxCall

Question

What is the difference between typical AJAX and Fetch API?

Consider this scenario:

function ajaxCall(url) {
  return new Promise(function(resolve, reject         


        

Answer 1

Your ajaxCall is returning the responseText from the XMLHttpRequest object. It is filtering it out.

You need to read the response Text in the fetch code.

fetch('/foo/').then(x => x.text()).then(console.log)

You can also use x.json() or x.blob()
