I have a function that needs some data from firestore and I want to make another function that will get the data and return it to the function calling it
The code that I’m trying:
function getData(){ var dataNeeded; let finalData = await db.collection("Trial").doc("trialDoc").get().then(doc => { dataNeeded = doc.data(); console.log(dataNeeded); return dataNeeded; }); return finalData; } function logic() { dataRecieved = getData();
Here my logic
function needs to use data that is received from the getData
function
Any suggestions on how to get the data in this way?

You need to use a promise
function getData() { return Firebase.firestore().collection("Trial").doc("trialDoc").get() } async function login() { const dataRecieved = await getData(); // you can data using dataRecieved.data() // your logic here }
