NODEJS - AXIOS : Error : The “url” argument must be of type string. Received type object at Url.parse

I am trying to fetch data from a rest API using AXIOS as below:

require('dotenv').config();
const axios = require('axios');

var url = 'https://931eb067-05c0-492a-8129-48ebfc27d426-bluemix.cloudant.com/dummy/_design/NEW_VIEW_DESIGN/_view/new-view?include_docs=true';
axios.get(url,auth:
username: process.env.account,
password: process.env.password
).then((res)=>console.log(res.data);)
.catch((e)=>console.log(e));


I am able to access the metioned URL seperately by providing the credentials but I am getting the below error while using AXIOS

The "url" argument must be of type string. Received type object at Url.parse

What has gone wrong?

axios.get(url,auth:
username: process.env.account,
password: process.env.password
).then((res)=>console.log(res.data);)


Should be

axios.get(url,auth:
username: process.env.account,
password: process.env.password
).then((res)=>console.log(res.data);)


You putted url inside the config confie parameter but it must be before the config.

url

axios.get(url, auth:
username: process.env.account,
password: process.env.password
).then((res)=>console.log(res.data);)
.catch((e)=>console.log(e));
