Suggested Solution:

The error ReferenceError: fetch is not defined indicates that fetch is not available in the Node.js environment by default. You can solve this by installing a library like node-fetch.

Try adding the following to your Node.js project:

1. Install node-fetch:

   npm install node-fetch
   

2. Require and set fetch globally at the top of your script:

   const fetch = require('node-fetch');
   global.fetch = fetch;
   

This should resolve the fetch is not defined error.
