Axios - send get request with url + variable

Question

This must be a stupid question, but I'm just starting and would appreciate any help!

So I have this code to get query parameter:

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
var code = req.query.code;
console.log(code);

And when I go to http://localhost:3000/?code=123, I get the code value in console, so it works fine.

Now, I need to send a GET request and add the value of the var code, this is where I'm stuck. Let's say, I should send a GET request to 'http://testtesttest123.com/' + var code + 'hi'.

How can I do this?

I've tried this way and some other ways, but nothing worked:

 axios.get('http://testtesttest123.com/?&code=', {params: {code}}, '&hi')
.then(function (response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function (error) {
    console.log(error);
  })
});

Thank you in advance!

What exactly is the final URL meant to look like? Is it http://testtesttest123.com/?code=123&hi or something else? — Phil

The axios.get call should look like this.

axios.get('http://testtesttest123.com/?code=' + code + '&hi')

With code = 123, this will call the URL http://testtesttest123.com/?code=123&hi.

Use the params config to send through query parameters. To support your empty hi parameter, you can include it in the URL string

axios.get("http://testtesttest123.com/?hi", {
  params: { code }
})

For a code value of 123, this will perform a GET request to

http://testtesttest123.com/?hi&code=123

It will also ensure that the code value is made safe for use in URLs
