To debug my code my fetch function consists console.log() my attempt on trying to get to the data that i need, i particularly need to get to the departure information and i believe i am successful of doing so, here is my attempt:

fetch('https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=' + latitude + ',' + longitude + '&destination=' + goingto + '&mode=transit&transit_mode=bus&key=' + apiDirectionskey)
            .then((resdirections) => resdirections.json())
            .then((responseJson4) => {
                const departureloc = responseJson4.routes[0].legs[0].steps[1];
                console.log(departureloc);

the code above leads to the following JSON result:

Object {
  "distance": Object {
    "text": "3.1 km",
    "value": 3129,
  },
  "duration": Object {
    "text": "20 mins",
    "value": 1200,
  },

        "lng": -1.471283,
      },
      "name": "Bus Station (Bay 19)",
    },
    "arrival_time": Object {
      "text": "9:45am",
      "time_zone": "Europe/London",
      "value": 1524645900,
    },
    "departure_stop": Object {
      "location": Object {

        "lng": -1.478217,
      },
      "name": "Randolph Road",
    },
    "departure_time": Object {
      "text": "9:24am",
      "time_zone": "Europe/London",
      "value": 1524644676,
    },
    "headsign": "Derby",
    "line": Object {
      "agencies": Array [
        Object {
          "name": "Arriva Midlands",
          "url": "http://www.traveline.info/",
        },
      ],
      "color": "#11416d",

        "name": "Bus",
        "type": "BUS",
      },
    },
    "num_stops": 12,
  },
  "travel_mode": "TRANSIT",
}

as it shows it returns the actual JSON information that i need, and i want the transit information particularly the departure_stop location which looks like this:

"departure_stop": Object {
      "location": Object {
        "lat": 52.900963,
        "lng": -1.478217,
      },
      "name": "Randolph Road",
    }

I am in the process acquiring this data of the departure location so i can setState(). after initial tries of attempting to use .map() so i can aquire at latitude and longitude values, i am failing to get to do so as i am getting this: [Unhandled promise rejection: TypeError: undefined is not a function (evaluating 'departureloc.map')]

Here is my attempt:

 fetch('https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=' + latitude + ',' + longitude + '&destination=' + goingto + '&mode=transit&transit_mode=bus&key=' + apiDirectionskey)
            .then((resdirections) => resdirections.json())
            .then((responseJson4) => {
                //const departureloc = responseJson4.routes[0].legs[0].steps[1];
                const departureloc = responseJson4.routes[0].legs[0].steps[1];
                console.log(departureloc);
                let busscoords = departureloc.map((outcome) => {
                    return ( {
                                latitude: console.log(outcome.departure_stop.location.lat),
                                //longitude: outcome.departure_stop.location.lng,


                    });
                });
                //this.setState(console.log({ departureloc }));


            });
    }

Have i missed something? or what is my mistake? Any pointers on how to do this properly would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

actual JSON from:

 const departureloc = responseJson4.routes[0].legs[0].steps[1];
                    console.log(departureloc);

Since departureloc is an Object, therefore you cannot use .map on it

The map() method creates a new array with the results of calling a provided function on every element in the calling array.

If you need to map on Object, use the Object.keys as it returns an array of a given object's properties names and use setState based on the key' properties.

and add a condition not to return undefined values as

Object.keys(departureloc).map(value => {
  if(departureloc[value] && departureloc[value].lat) {
     return //...
  }
}
