Using Reactjs and Typescript, I have a parent component with data from api. It clicks to open a MUI Dialog with a form to edit but needs to be prepopulated with the data from the parents component. The parent gets its data from an api.Its is not getting the data in the textfield of the dialog and giving error for ‘PostData.email’ in the child component.
**’PostData’ is possibly ‘undefined’.ts(18048)
<code>(parameter) PostData: {
id: number;
name: string;
email: string;
} | undefined**
</code>
<code>(parameter) PostData: {
id: number;
name: string;
email: string;
} | undefined**
</code>
(parameter) PostData: {
id: number;
name: string;
email: string;
} | undefined**
Dialog (child )
<code>interface DialogProps {
isOpen: boolean;
onClose?: () => void;
PostData? : {
id: number;
name: string;
email: string;
};
}
const DialogBox: React.FC<DialogProps> = ({ PostData , isOpen, onClose}) => {
const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
const handleClickOpen = () => {
setOpen(true);
};
const handleClose = () => {
setOpen(false);
};
return (
<React.Fragment>
<Dialog

PaperProps={{
component: 'form',
onSubmit: (event: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) => {
event.preventDefault();
const formData = new FormData(event.currentTarget);
const formJson = Object.fromEntries((formData as any).entries());
const email = formJson.email;
console.log(email);
handleClose();
},
