React Native Stack Navigator passing props - react-navigation

Question

I want to pass some props (value) to another page and I'm using stackNavigator
App.js:
import Insert from "./components/pages/Insert";
import ViewData from "./components/pages/ViewData";
const Stack = createStackNavigator();
NavigationContainer>
<Stack.Navigator headerMode={false}>
<Stack.Screen name="Insert Your data" component={Insert} />
<Stack.Screen name="ViewData" component={ViewData} />
</Stack.Navigator>
</NavigationContainer>
Insert.js
const Insert = ({ props, navigation: { navigate } }) => {
const [enteredName, setEnteredName] = useState();
const [enteredSurname, setEnteredSurname] = useState();
const sendValues = (enteredName, enteredSurname) => {
setEnteredName(enteredName);
setEnteredSurname(enteredSurname);
navigate("ViewData", {
name: enteredSurname,
surname: enteredSurname
});
};
...
<View>
<Button
title="Submit"
onPress={() => sendValues(enteredName, enteredSurname)}
/>
ViewData.js
const ViewData = ({props, navigation: { goBack } }) => {
let name = enteredName;
console.log(name); /// I always get undefined
return (
<View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: "center", justifyContent: "center" }}>
<Text>Here {name}</Text>
<Button onPress={() => goBack()} title="Edit Data" />
</View>
);
};
When I Submit I'm always getting undefined into the console.
For sure I'm mistaking somewhere.
Any idea?
Thanks!!

Refer to https://reactnavigation.org/docs/hello-react-navigation/#passing-additional-props
Use a render callback for the screen instead of specifying a component
prop:
<Stack.Screen name="Home">
{props => <HomeScreen {...props} extraData={someData} />}
</Stack.Screen>
You can change like this
import Insert from "./components/pages/Insert";
import ViewData from "./components/pages/ViewData";
const Stack = createStackNavigator();
<NavigationContainer>
<Stack.Navigator headerMode={false}>
<Stack.Screen name="Insert Your data">
{props => (<Insert {...props} extraData={data}/>)}
<Stack.Screen name="ViewData" component={ViewData} />
</Stack.Navigator>
</NavigationContainer>

Reading your code it seems that you want to pass some params to the render component when navigate.
Refer to https://reactnavigation.org/docs/route-prop , the params from
navigation.navigate(routeName, params)
are passed to the screen render component as propriety of the route object. So in your case it should work:
let name = props.route.params.name;
