axios gives me converting circular structure to json error while sending the data

Question

My code is as shown below:

axios.post('https://api.sandbox.xyz.com/v1/order/new', JSON.stringify({
            "request": "/v1/order/new",
            "nonce": 123462,

            "client_order_id": "20150102-4738721",
            "symbol": "btcusd",
            "amount": "1.01",
            "price": "11.13",
            "side": "buy",
            "type": "exchange limit"
        }), config)
        .then(function(response) {
            console.log(response);
            res.json({
                data: JSON.stringify(response)
            })
        })
        .catch(function(error) {
            console.log(error);
            res.send({
                status: '500',
                message: error
            })
        });

Now it is saying that Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 2): TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON for the code res.json({data:JSON.stringify(response)})

So, is there anything missing in this code ?

            res.send({
                status: '500',
                message: error
            })
        });

The problem might be because of the response you are sending out to the client is not a JSON object. In my case, I solved the error by simply sending the JSON part of the response object.

res.status(200).json({
  success:true,
  result:result.data
})
