Unable to return value inside function in node.js . Below is my function which I am calling from another function to get desired value but I am getting undefined.

const getBBBMeetingInfo = (meetingID) => {

    let bbbHttp = bbb.http;
    let getMeetingInfo = api.monitoring.getMeetingInfo(meetingID);
    let val;
    bbbHttp(getMeetingInfo).then((result) => {
      let newRes = {};
      newRes = result;
      newRes.meetingID = meetingID;
      if(newRes.returncode == 'FAILED'){
        updateNotificationCallStatus(meetingID)
      }  
      val = newRes.returncode

    });

    return val
}

calling fuction like this

let bn =  getBBBMeetingInfo(ele.meetingId);
console.log(bn)//undefined

I am new to node.js. Please let me know how I can get it and use it as returned value.

Can you show the `bbbHttp` function? – Mithat Ercan Dec 27 '22 at 09:28
its library , const bbb = require("bigbluebutton-js"); let bbbHttp = bbb.http; – chgav007 Dec 27 '22 at 09:32
It needs to be async (as in async/await) because of the promise – Alexander Mills Dec 27 '22 at 09:32
actually I am calling this let bn = getBBBMeetingInfo(ele.meetingId); inside other function callback. – chgav007 Dec 27 '22 at 09:34
