Answer 1

Try this: this is the form which has the button, and is a child component of some other component that passes the handleButtonAction method as props, and the button takes the input data and invokes this parent component method

handleSubmit = (e) => {
  e.preventDefault();
  const data = e.target.elements.option.value.trim();
  if (!data) {
    this.setState(() => ({ error: 'Please type data' }));
  } else {
    this.props.handleButtonAction(data, date);
  }
} 

{this.state.error && <p>{this.state.error}</p>} 
<form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit}>
  <input type="text" name="option"/>
  <div>
    <button>Get data</button>
  </div>
</form>

The parent component:

handleButtonAction = (data) => {

  axios.get(`http://localhost:3000/someGetMethod/${data}`).then(response => {
        const resData = response.data;
        this.setState({
            openModal: true,
            status: response.status,
            data: resData
         });
    }).catch((error) => {
        if (error.message.toLowerCase() === 'network error') {              
          this.setStateWithError(-1, {});
        }
        else { // not found aka 404              
          this.setStateWithError(error.response.status, '', {currency, date: ddat});
        }
    });        
}

When working on React applications, try not to think in terms of passing values to other components, but rather updating state that your components are exposed to. In your example, assuming your modal component is a child of the same component your list of a tags belongs to, you could set the values you are interested in exposing to the modal on the state, as well as updating the property that signals whether the modal is open or not. For example:

class Container extends React.Component {
    constructor(props) {
       super(props)
       this.state = {
          openDeleteModal: false,
          activeItemName: '', //state property to hold item name
          activeItemId: null, //state property to hold item id
       }
    }

    openModalWithItem(item) {
       this.setState({
          openDeleteModal: true,
          activeItemName: item.name,
          activeItemId: item.id
       })
    }

    render() {

    let buttonList = this.props.item.map( item => {
      return (<button onClick={() => this.openModalWithItem(item)}>{item.name}</button>
    });

    return (
     <div>
        {/* Example Modal Component */}
        <Modal isOpen={this.state.openDeleteModal}  
               itemId={this.state.activeItemId}
               itemName={this.state.activeItemName}/>
        { buttonList }
     </div>
    )
    }
}

Copying over my answer from How to pass props to a modal

Similar scenario

constructor(props) {

    super(props)


    this.state = {
      isModalOpen: false,
      modalProduct: undefined,
    }
}

//****************************************************************************/

render() {

    return (
        <h4> Bag </h4>
        {this.state.isModalOpen & (
          <Modal 
            modalProduct={this.state.modalProduct}
            closeModal={() => this.setState({ isModalOpen: false, modalProduct: undefined})
            deleteProduct={ ... }
          />
        )

        {bag.products.map((product, index) => (
        <div key={index}>
            <div>{product.name}</div>
            <div>£{product.price}</div>
            <div>
            <span> Quantity:{product.quantity} </span>
            <button onClick={() => this.props.incrementQuantity(product, product.quantity += 1)}> + </button>
            <button onClick={() => this.decrementQuantity(product)}> - </button> // <----
            </div>
        </div>
        ))}
    )
}

//****************************************************************************/

decrementQuantity(product) {

    if(product.quantity === 1) {
        this.setState({ isModalOpen: true, modalProduct: product })
    } else {
        this.props.decrementQuantity(product)
    }
}
