How do you trap a legitimate time-out with wix fetch? In the console.log I get the error: "WebMethod request timed-out after 14 seconds... "

The console log is fine for development but once in production, I need to be able to handle the situation and not just hang.

 return fetch(url, {method: 'get'})
        .then(response => response.json())
        .catch(err => console.log(err));

}

Handle the error in .catch() instead of just displaying a message in the log.

.catch(err => {
    console.log(err);
    // do your error handling here
});

I know it’s still just console log in the code snippet but I have tried that and that .catch is not .catching it.

This:

 try {
 return fetch(url, {method: 'get'})
        .then(response => response.json())
        .catch(err => console.log(".catch err: " + err));

    } catch (err) {
        console.log("try .catch err: " + err)
    }

Still results in this;

The snippet above is from my backend code. Apparently you have to .catch it from the front end code. I think I’m good now.
