I am trying to fetch some local data from my api and post it on the browsers console using a button however it doesnt work when in the button's function but it works perfectly fine when it is outside the onclick function, i even tried a return statement for the fetch. I am trying to do so, so i can display all the data on an html table generated by JS. Anyways here is the html code followed by the JS code :

function getUsers(){
return fetch('http://localhost:3000/users')
.then(response => response.json())
.then(json => console.log(json))
}
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-outline-light" onclick="getUsers()">Users</button>

js code :

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
var cors = require('cors');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
//server stuff end

const xlsx = require('xlsx');
const file = xlsx.readFile('./testing.xlsx');
const sheet = file.Sheets['Sheet1'];
const content = xlsx.utils.sheet_to_json(sheet);
//reading xlsx file from sheet 1

app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(cors()); //using cors so we can call it from html file

app.get('/', function (req, res) {
 })


app.get('/Users', function (req, res) {
res.send(content);
})


app.listen(3000);
