# My Prefab - Request

This component is used to call My Prefab endpoints.

> Please note that [My Prefab - Setup](/library/prefabs/my-prefab/components/setup-my-prefab/) needs to be set up in your app before you can properly use this component.

## Extracting the data

The simplest way to extract the data from the response is by using an [Expression](/nodes/math/expression/) node, and accessing the body from the response:

<div className="ndl-image-with-background l">

![](/library/prefabs/my-prefab/request.png)

</div>

For more advanced extraction (and parsing) you can use a [Function](/nodes/javascript/function) node.
