  await axios
    .get(`/${module}/${payload}`)
    .then((res) => {
      return res.data.data;

Problems in your code:

  • show function doesn't explicitly returns anything; as a result, promise returned by the show function is fulfilled with the value of undefined

Improvements that can be made in your code:

  1. catch and finally blocks are not needed; catch block is unnecessary because rejected promise returned as a result of catch block will need to be handled by the code that calls the show function.

    You will need the catch method or block in the calling code anyways. So, just remove the catch block and allow the calling code to catch and handle the error

  2. show function doesn't needs to be async. You can just return the result of axios.get or axios.get(...).then(...)

Final version of "show" method:

exports.show = (payload) => {
  return axios
    .get(`/${module}/${payload}`)
    .then((res) => {
      return res.data.data;
    });
}

You can call this function as:

psm.show(12)
   .then(res => console.log(res))
   .catch(error => { /* handle the error */ });

Alternate version of show function:

exports.show = (payload) => {
  return axios.get(`/${module}/${payload}`);
}

You can call this version of show function as:

psm.show(12)
   .then(res => console.log(res.data.data))
   .catch(error => { /* handle the error */ });
