Clicking html button programmatically, is not passing the data attribute JS

I have a Bootstrap modal with this button
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" id="send" data-btn-action="send">Send</button>
On the main page, where the modal is, I have the same button as above but with a submit type. So, on click of the modal's button, it triggers the button on the page. It works fine, but the data attribute is NULL if it's triggered from the modal but if I click on it directly, I get the data attribute value
My JS
let actionBtn = $("#send").attr('data-btn-action');
Thank you.
