Hi,

I'm connecting to the api with angular. It returns 200 as a result. But I am getting the following error. Why does this problem occur? What is the solution. Can you help me.

This error occurs when you parse some data where parsing is not required. The error means no parsing is required.

You can test this yourself, e.g. in Chrome's console:
```
new Object().toString()
// "[object Object]"

JSON.parse(new Object())
// Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token o in JSON at position 1
```
JSON.parse() converts the input into a string.

The toString() method of JavaScript objects by default returns [object Object], resulting in the observed behavior.

Solution: Remove the parsing.
