What is the need for then(response => response) on each method? Did you intend to extract data from the response so the consumer doesn't have to grab data each time? Such as return axiosClient.get(/${URL}).then(response => response.data);? Otherwise it could be removed to shorten those wrapper/helper methods.

To access the response like below

import { getRequest } from 'axiosClient';

async function fetchUser() {
try {
  const user = await getRequest('users');
  console.log(user.data);
} catch(error) {
   //Log errors
  }
}

What happens when you remove .then(response => response) from getRequest(URL). Does it change how const user = await getRequest('users'); works at all?
