Remove first element of JSON-Array in React [duplicate]

Question

I want to remove the first element from a JSON-array. The Json-array has this format:

[{"hyperperiod":1200},{"x":"Process0Application1Data1","y": 
["0.00","5.00"],"fillColor":"#008FFB"}, ...]

The Result should be:

[{"x":"Process0Application1Data1","y": 
["0.00","5.00"],"fillColor":"#008FFB"}, ...]

I tried using splice

console.log(response.data);
response.data.splice(0, 1);
console.log(response.data);

What have you tried so far? There are many approaches to removing the first element of an array — evolutionxbox

You're going to need to edit the question. Include a minimal reproducible example which shows an explanation of what you mean by "does not work". — evolutionxbox

If you just one to remove the first item from an array, regardless of what type of array it is you can use shift(). https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_shift.asp

In your code that would simply be:

response.data.shift();
