Proxy requests to another source

You can use fetch() to make requests to other sources via an Edge Function.

Code example

Edge Functions are files held in the netlify/edge-functions directory.

import { Context } from "https://edge.netlify.com";

export default async (request: Request, context: Context) => {
  const joke = await fetch("https://icanhazdadjoke.com/", {
    headers: {
      Accept: "application/json",
    },
  });
  const jsonData = await joke.json();
  return context.json(jsonData);
};
