Hello Team,

I was able to create custom visualization (react visualization) , however i want to execute custom GET /POST requests from the visualization.  
I tried to set httpClient from app.js something similar to custom Kibana plugin

```
const { httpClient } = this.props;
httpClient.get

```

. but i m getting httpClinet or $http s undefined.

```
backend.js:1 TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined

```

Could you please help me understand how can i execute http GET/POST requests from VisualizationController or react component .

Thank you for your help and support.  
Aditya

Hey @adityaPsl,

You can use `kfetch` to execute GET/POST requests as needed:

```auto
import { kfetch } from 'ui/kfetch';

const response = await kfetch({
    pathname: '/api/my-custom-endpoint',
    method: 'POST',
    body: JSON.stringify({ prop1: true, prop2: 'foo' }),
});

```

Thank you very much Larry\_Gregory,  
I will try to implement this.  
Only one query , here `pathname` is the path we define in `server.route` function right

Thank you,  
Aditya

Hello Larry\_Gregory,

Sorry for the delay. kfetch worked for me. only thing is that i had to wrap the kefetch inside async function.

```
(async () => {
		const response = await kfetch({
			pathname:'../api/sample_react_vis/example',
			method: 'POST',

		  });

```

Thank you,  
Aditya
