@magmirusr you will have to do promise.then in the non-async method to wait for the data

Hence I’ve utilized async capacities to get the information.

It’s turned out great however when I send it back to my main.js record it shows up as a Promise and I can’t handle the information.
Thanks.

@magmirusr

case "CASE_1":
  scrape("...").then((text) => {
    this.sendSocketNotification("text", text)
  })
  break

Or

case "CASE_1"
  const AsyncJob = async () => {
    var text = await scrape("...")
    this.sendSocketNotification("text", text) 
  }
  AsyncJob()
  break
