Don t need to use this method     map  res  Response    gt  res json        Just use this simple method instead of the previous method  hopefully you ll get your result    map res   gt  res

Had a similar problem where we wanted to update from deprecated Http module to HttpClient in Angular 7  But the application is large and need to change res json   in a lot of places   So I did this to have the new module with back support   return this http get this BASE URL   url         toPromise          then data  gt           let res     results   JSON stringify data            json       gt  return data                   return res                   catch error   gt            return Promise reject error               Adding a dummy  json  named function from the central place so that all other services can still execute successfully before updating them to accommodate a new way of response handling i e  without  json  function

HttpClient get   applies res json   automatically and returns Observable lt HttpResponse lt string gt  gt   You no longer need to call this function yourself   See Difference between HTTP and HTTPClient in angular 4

You can remove the entire line below     map  res  Response    gt  res json       No need to use the map method at all
