Accessing $scope variable from another method in the same controller Angularjs

Question

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//
  }

}

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, — PSL

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.
