How to retry original request and access original promise with Axios request interceptors?

Sometimes, we want to retry original request and access original promise with Axios request interceptors.

In this article, we’ll look at how to retry original request and access original promise with Axios request interceptors.

How to retry original request and access original promise with Axios request interceptors?

To retry original request and access original promise with Axios request interceptors, we can call axios.request with the error.config object.

For instance, we write

axios.interceptors.response.use(
  (response) => response,
  async (error) => {
    const status = error?.response?.status;
    if (status === 401) {
      await refreshToken(store);
      error.config.headers[
        "Authorization"
      ] = `Bearer ${store.state.auth.token}`;
      error.config.baseURL = undefined;
      return axios.request(error.config);
    }

    return Promise.reject(error);
  }
);

to check if the response status is 401 with

status === 401

Then we call refreshToken and then get the token from the store and set it as the value of the Authorization request header.

And then we call axios.request with the error.config and return the returned promise to retry the request.

Conclusion

To retry original request and access original promise with Axios request interceptors, we can call axios.request with the error.config object.
