To call an API from the backend, you can use the callApi function from the @superset-ui/core package. Here are the steps:

1. Import the callApi function:

   import callApi from '@superset-ui/core/src/connection/callApi/callApi';

2. Define the API request configuration:

   const apiRequestConfig = {
     url: 'http://ec2-18-234-117-70.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8088/api/v1/chart/data?form_data=%7B%22slice_id%22%3A97%7D',
     method: 'GET',
     headers: {
       'Content-Type': 'application/json',
     },
   };

3. Call the API:

   async function fetchData() {
     try {
       const response = await callApi(apiRequestConfig);
       const data = await response.json();
       console.log(data);
     } catch (error) {
       console.error('API call failed:', error);
     }
   }
   
   fetchData();

4. Handle the response: Process the response by parsing the JSON data and handling any errors.

This example demonstrates a basic GET request. You can adjust the method, url, and other parameters in the apiRequestConfig object to suit your specific API call requirements ^[1].
