How to resolve this error - uncaught (in promise)?

1.4K    Asked by AashnaSaito in Salesforce , Asked on Apr 28, 2023

I am working in this app and everything works so fine and no errors so far but I accidentally click this "SFDX: Turn On Apex Debug Log for Replay Debugger" instead of new LWC so I tried to deploy and test it again then this error appear "Uncaught (in promise)". I think errors appear anytime I click any button inside the datatable. Any button outside of the datatable works fine. Can anyone help me fix this?

To resolve the error - uncaught (in promise) - Turning on the Apex Replay Debugger (ARD) just sets up some data in Salesforce for debugging purposes. It cannot make your previously working code stop working. The error is telling you that an Apex method failed to execute. You can expand the pageErrors object for more details on what happened, or you can use the "SFDX: Get Apex Debug Logs" VS Code command to retrieve recent logs, since you've turned on the ARD. You can prove that ARD isn't the problem by using the "SFDX: Turn off Apex Debug Log for Replay Debugger" menu command.

The "Uncaught (in promise)" error in JavaScript typically occurs when a promise is rejected and there is no catch block or rejection handler to handle the error. This means that the promise was rejected with an error, but the error was not properly caught and managed.

Here’s how you can resolve this error:

1. Add a catch Block to Handle the Rejection

Ensure that every promise chain has a catch block to handle any errors that might occur.

  fetch('some-api-url')  .then(response => response.json())  .then(data => {    // Do something with the data  })  .catch(error => {    console.error('Error caught in promise:', error);  });

2. Use try...catch with async/await

If you are using async/await syntax, make sure to wrap your asynchronous code in a try...catch block.

  async function fetchData() {  try {    const response = await fetch('some-api-url');    const data = await response.json();    // Do something with the data  } catch (error) {    console.error('Error caught in async function:', error);  }}fetchData();

3. Ensure All Promises Are Handled

Make sure that every promise, whether it's a part of a chain or standalone, has error handling.

Example: Handling a Promise

  const myPromise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {  // Some asynchronous operation  if (/* some condition */) {    resolve('Success!');  } else {    reject('Failure!');  }});myPromise  .then(result => {    console.log(result);  })  .catch(error => {    console.error('Promise was rejected:', error);  });

4. Check for Unhandled Promise Rejections Globally

For debugging, you can add a global handler to catch all unhandled promise rejections. This is useful for development but should not be relied upon in production.

  window.addEventListener('unhandledrejection', event => {  console.error('Unhandled promise rejection:', event.reason);});

5. Verify the Source of the Rejection

Ensure that the promise rejection is expected and handled properly. Sometimes, errors might occur due to issues in the asynchronous operation itself (e.g., network failure, invalid responses).

Example: Fetch API Error Handling

  async function fetchData() {  try {    const response = await fetch('some-api-url');    if (!response.ok) {      throw new Error('Network response was not ok');    }    const data = await response.json();    // Do something with the data  } catch (error) {    console.error('Error fetching data:', error);  }}fetchData();

6. Debugging Tips

  • Console Logging: Add console logs to track where the promise is being rejected.
  • Break Down Code: Isolate the code where the promise is created and handled to narrow down the source of the error.
  • Check Promise Chain: Ensure each part of the promise chain is correctly handled and error handling is added.

By applying these methods, you can handle promise rejections more effectively and prevent the "Uncaught (in promise)" error in your JavaScript code.
