In my application I have a seller page which displays products listed by that seller. I am using asyncData to get all data required for the page (better for SEO)
asyncData ({params, app, error }) {
return app.$axios.$get(`/seller/${params.username}`).then(async sellerRes => {
let [categoriesRes, reviewsRes, productsRes] = await Promise.all([
app.$axios.$get(`/categories`),
app.$axios.$get(`/seller/${params.username}/reviews`),
app.$axios.$get(`/seller/${params.username}/products`)
])
return {
seller: sellerRes.data,
metaTitle: sellerRes.data.name,
categories: categoriesRes.data,
reviewsSummary: reviewsRes.summary,
products: productsRes.data,
}
}).catch(e => {
error({ statusCode: 404, message: 'Seller not found' })
});
},
Although this method does the job intended, I can’t help but think I am doing this wrong.
When navigating to the page the nuxt progress bar displays twice (which is odd).
I’ve been searching for a while now to try and find examples of multiple requests in asyncData but there’s not much out there.
Maybe I’m not supposed to call multiple requests in asyncData?

Maybe so?
This is a chain of promises. The first promise tries to get information about the seller, if the request is successful, then a new request is created that will wait for the rest of the information.
Method
asyncData
will wait for all promises to complete and return the result of the call.Actually, you can, using the
async await
, which, looks a lot cleaner too.here is a working sandbox of it. (don’t forget to add a value for
:id
route param)Try to use async await, this is how you can run both requests in parallel:
