When logging object properties, always verify that the property names exactly match the actual structure of the object being logged. Incorrect property names (like ‘responses’ instead of ‘response’) or non-existent properties will result in undefined values in logs, reducing their usefulness for debugging and troubleshooting.
Example of problematic code:
console.log('Responses:', result.responses); // Incorrect property name
console.log('Provider Metadata:', result.providerMetadata); // Non-existent property
Corrected code:
console.log('Response:', result.response); // Correct property name
// Don't log properties that don't exist in the object
Consider using optional chaining (?.) for nested properties or TypeScript to help catch these issues at compile time. For important logging in production code, consider adding runtime property existence checks before logging.
