Not able to get params from Node.js Server Request by Axios

I am trying to make a simple application which tries to send an SMS. I am using Axios to send a request to the server to send the SMS, and I am using Node.js for the server.
Below given is a snippet of the code of App.js sending the request to server, with parameter NUM which contains the number that twilio (SMS Service) has to send an SMS to
const sendSMSClinic = async () => {
console.log("CLINIC SMS SENDING FUNCTION ACCESSED");
try {
let res = await axios.get("http://localhost:3001/api/mail", {params: {
NUM: "971561490375"
}});
} catch(AxiosError) {
console.log(AxiosError)
}
}
Below given is the code of index.js which initiates the node.js server and tries to send an SMS
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const port = process.env.PORT || 3001;
var cors = require('cors')
app.use(cors())
const accountSid = 'AC8ae163a17e6e3d2ce63e64a98bac68c4';
const authToken = '0a13cc33147e4ffb34682097fbf6c49d';
const client = require('twilio')(accountSid, authToken);
app.get('/api/mail/:NUM', async (req, res) => {
console.log(req.params.NUM);
client.messages
.create({
to: '+971561490375',
from: '+16188160866',
body: 'REASON FOR CALL: CLINIC EMERGENCY'
})
.then(message => console.log(message.sid))
.done();
})
app.get("/",(req,res)=>{
res.status(200).send("successful")
})
app.listen(port, () => {
console.log('Server is up and running on port ', port);
})
The problem is that I am getting the below errors
GET http://localhost:3001/api/mail?NUM=971561490375 404 (Not Found)
and
AxiosError {message: 'Request failed with status code 404', name: 'AxiosError', code: 'ERR_BAD_REQUEST', config: {…}, request: XMLHttpRequest, …}

You should change your axios request to:
const num = "971561490375";
const res = await axios.get(`http://localhost:3001/api/mail/${num}`)
If you want to add multiple path parameters you can edit your end-point declaration to:
app.get('/api/mail/:NUM/:NUM2', (req, res) => {
console.log(req.params.NUM, req.params.NUM2);
...
}
And your axios request to:
const num = "971561490375";
const num2 = "971561490375";
const res = await axios.get(`http://localhost:3001/api/mail/${num}/${num2}`);

Does express-rate-limit work on server requests from client side?

So I have a web app I've built with react and javascript that consists of a server side and a client side.
This is what I set up on the server app.js:
require("./DB/connectToDb");
// require("./primeryData/primeryCards")();
const express = require("express");
const app = express();
const rateLimit = require("express-rate-limit");
const usersRouter = require("./Routes/Users/userRouter");
const cardsRouter = require("./Routes/Cards/cardsRouter");
const ordersRouter = require("./Routes/Orders/OrderRouter");
const chalk = require("chalk");
const morgan = require("morgan");
const cors = require("cors");
app.use(morgan(chalk.cyan(":method :url :status :response-time ms")));
app.use(cors());
app.use(express.json());
app.use("/api/users", usersRouter);
app.use("/api/cards", cardsRouter);
app.use("/api/orders", ordersRouter);
const PORT = 8181;
app.listen(PORT, () =>
console.log(chalk.blueBright.bold(`server run on: http://:localhost:${PORT}`))
);
const limiter = rateLimit({
windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
max: 10, // Limit each IP to 100 requests per `window` (here, per 15 minutes)
message: "Limited I Guess..."
})
app.get("/",limiter,(req,res)=>res.send(req.ip));
app.use('/api', limiter);
When I go to the Browser with http://localhost:8181/ I get my IP which is ::1
After refreshing >10 times I get "Limited I Guess..." as it should.
However when I try and use my client side to make requests nothing happens, I can make a million server calls!!!
Am I missing something? Does express-rate-limit not work when client side is making the server calls?
An example of my server api:
/********** Like/Dislike Card **********/
router.patch("/card-like/:id", auth, async (req, res) => {
try {
// console.log(req.params.id);
const user = req.user;
let card = await Card.findOne({ _id: req.params.id });
const cardLikes = card.likes.find((id) => id === user._id);
if (!cardLikes) {
card.likes.push(user._id);
card = await card.save();
return res.send(card);
}
const cardFiltered = card.likes.filter((id) => id !== user._id);
card.likes = cardFiltered;
card = await card.save();
return res.send(card);
} catch (error) {
console.log(chalk.redBright("Could not edit like:", error.message));
return res.status(500).send(error.message);
}
});

I was using the library in app.js, tried using it in api.js and worked I guess, app.js was unaware of what was going on in api.js even though it was required.

Bind problem in SQL query in Node, Express, Mysql2 app

I have been following a tutorial on setting up REST APIs in Node, using Express for an app that accesses an existing MariaDB database. My version only needs to read data and I have the DB co-located with the Node application (same host).
My goal for this entry-level example is to just access the data, using static SQL, so I can see it rendered in the web page by the JSON pritifier.
[Next, I want to present the data in a table (EJS?). Later, when I can get that to work, I'll add form controls (React?) to let a user specify start and end date bounds for the SQL query. Finally I'll aim to render the data as a line graph (D3js).]
The tutorial runs the web server successfully (it returns 'OK' on the base URL), but when I go to URL/solarData it tries an async function to getMultiple rows from the DB, it responds:
Bind parameters must not contain undefined. To pass SQL NULL specify JS null TypeError: Bind parameters must not contain undefined. To pass SQL NULL specify JS null

I've left out the ./helper.js
Everything runs fine until I direct the webpage to /solarData. At that point I get the Debug Console (vscode) mentioned up-front
Searching seems to point at a mysql2 shortcoming/bug but not at a practical solution
If you respond, please describe the 'bind' mechanism, as I'm not sure what's going on.
Hope I've put enough info in. Please ask if I need to add anything else.

The error says
Bind parameters must not contain undefined.
It means that in the file ./services/solarData.js on the line
const rows = await db.query(
`SELECT * FROM DTP LIMIT ?,?`, [offset, config.listPerPage]
);
Some of the 2 variables is undefined, you need to check offset and config.listPerPage to be defined.
Just use
console.log('offset: ' + offset)
console.log('listPerPage: ' + config.listPerPage)
and you will find out what is undefined in your case

Node and DialogFlow Error: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: sessionClient.projectAgentSessionPath is not a function

I'm trying to connect from Nodejs to DialogFlow. I have completed all the steps to configure the user agent, the intent, etc. If I lunch with NODEMON the app, all its ok, but when I send a GET or POST request I get this error:
"UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: sessionClient.projectAgentSessionPath" and more. But I think the most relevant mistake is this.
The code I used it's the same as the APi docs. I don't know why I get this error.
const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const app = express();
const dialogflow = require('#google-cloud/dialogflow');
const uuid = require('uuid');
//const sendReq = require('./reqDialogFlow');
async function runSample(projectId = 'helpcenter-qwoj') {
// A unique identifier for the given session
const sessionId = uuid.v4();
// Create a new session
const sessionClient = new dialogflow.SessionsClient();
const sessionPath = sessionClient.projectAgentSessionPath(projectId, sessionId);
console.log(sessionPath);
// The text query request.
const request = {
session: sessionPath,
queryInput: {
text: {
// The query to send to the dialogflow agent
text: 'hello',
// The language used by the client (en-US)
languageCode: 'it',
},
},
};
// Send request and log result
const responses = await sessionClient.detectIntent(request);
console.log('Detected intent');
const result = responses[0].queryResult;
console.log(` Query: ${result.queryText}`);
console.log(` Response: ${result.fulfillmentText}`);
if (result.intent) {
console.log(` Intent: ${result.intent.displayName}`);
} else {
console.log(` No intent matched.`);
}
};
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.send({ "hello": "Daniele Asteggiante" })
});
app.post('/api/textAPIE', (req, res) => {
res.send({ "text": "CIAO" });
runSample();
});
app.use(bodyParser.json());
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 5000;
app.listen(PORT);

i had the same error.
i had installed
npm i dialogflow
instead of
npm install #google-cloud/dialogflow

I tried to change the Express Version version with an earlier version 4.17.0 instead 4.17.1.
Now it goes.

change "sessionClient.projectAgentSessionPath" -> "sessionClient.sessionPath"
Found this solution on github:https://github.com/googleapis/nodejs-dialogflow/issues/127

Apple-pay with Stripe not recognized in Dashboard

I seem to have gotten backend index.js file working with an apple-pay payment request on the back-end. However the results do not show up in my Stripe dashboard. Spinning my wheels and cannot figure out why. Any help would be much appreciated.
Below is the code I am using on the back-end. When I press the pay button in Apple-Pay in the App, my terminal window shows "Payment requested" and "Success" messages.
I would then expect the USD amount to process in my stripe dashboard but I am gettin $0.00 and no activity. Any help would be wonderful!

app.use(bodyParser.json())
// Just a sanity check endpoint we can hit in the browser
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.send('This is the backend server for Metatoll Application!')
})
app.post('/pay', function (req, res) {
