network all good and shows content (ip).. also the same error if done outside of asyncData as a normal method and called in mounted.. maybe I'm missing something obvious

Just FYI for other who got this issue.
It seems that the document is missing response promise chain, so it should be

const requestData = await $http.get('http://icanhazip.com')
const ip = await requestData.text()
return { ip }
