how can I call/access $scope.mydata from another method in the same controller in Angularjs?

My scenario is

.controller("myCtryl", function($scope, $http) {
 $scope.functionA = function(){
 $scope.data = "some data";
 }
 $scope.functionB = function(){
 //access $scope.data here//
 }
}

  • @user3569641 Have you actually called functionA? Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 18:39
  • You must be trying to access $scope.data in the other function before the previous function sets the value on it asyncronously. Currently your question is too unclear for us to provide a definitive answer for your issue, Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 18:40
  • yeah. thank you. @PSL. I was trying to access it before the previous function sets value. Commented Jan 25, 2015 at 18:41

It is fine to access $scope in that function.

.controller("myCtryl", function($scope, $http) {
 $scope.functionA = function(){
 $scope.data = "some data";
 }
 $scope.functionB = function(){
 $scope.data //this id valid
 }
}

You can just access $scope.data in functionB the same way you access it in functionA. It will work. The $scope variable is in the same lexical scope for both functions.
