Is it possible to change the baseURL after the api is created?

Something like this:

this.api = create({
  baseURL:'localhost:8999'
})

this.api.setBaseURL('somefancyapi.com');

Axios allows you, but we should definitely have a way. In fact, exactly like you suggest. 👍

To change it, you’ve got a few options.

• You can just create a brand new api object with the baseURL being what you want.
• You can call api.axiosInstance.setBaseURI('xxx') to change the instance (this is the thing I’ll make easier to do that was suggested at the start of this ticket).
• You can do it per request: api.getThing('myApiCall', {x: 1}, { baseURI: 'swappyswap.com' }).

It sounds like your situation is you connect to an API, then part way through the “session”, you change the API’s sub-domain.

I’d do bullet point 1, personally, unless you’ve got a bunch of “state” packed into the API object.
