title: Handle a Rejected Promise with catch
challengeType: 1
forumTopicId: 301204
---
# --description--
`catch` is the method used when your promise has been rejected. It is executed immediately after a promise's `reject` method is called. Heres the syntax:
```js
myPromise.catch(error => {
// do something with the error.
});
```
`error` is the argument passed in to the `reject` method.
# --instructions--
Add the `catch` method to your promise. Use `error` as the parameter of its callback function and log `error` to the console.
# --hints--
You should call the `catch` method on the promise.
```js
assert(
__helpers.removeWhiteSpace(code).match(/(makeServerRequest|\))\.catch\(/g)
);
```
Your `catch` method should have a callback function with `error` as its parameter.
```js
assert(errorIsParameter);
```
You should log `error` to the console.
```js
assert(
errorIsParameter &&
__helpers
.removeWhiteSpace(code)
.match(/\.catch\(.*?error.*?console.log\(error\).*?\)/)
);
```
# --seed--
## --after-user-code--
```js
const errorIsParameter = /\.catch\((function\(error\){|error|\(error\)=>)/.test(__helpers.removeWhiteSpace(code));
```
## --seed-contents--
```js
const makeServerRequest = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
// responseFromServer is set to false to represent an unsuccessful response from a server
let responseFromServer = false;
if(responseFromServer) {
resolve("We got the data");
} else {
reject("Data not received");
}
});
makeServerRequest.then(result => {
console.log(result);
});
```
# --solutions--
```js
const makeServerRequest = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
// responseFromServer is set to false to represent an unsuccessful response from a server
let responseFromServer = false;
if(responseFromServer) {
resolve("We got the data");
} else {
reject("Data not received");
}
});
makeServerRequest.then(result => {
console.log(result);
});
makeServerRequest.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
});
```
