I have defined a global list. I have a function that pushes values onto that list, this one works fine. However, I have another function, called after the function pushing the values is done, that needs the values from this list. Unfortunately, when I call the list in this last function, it shows as empty. Why is that?

simplified JS:

var recherche=[];

function clickUpdates() {

  
  switch(count) {
    // call recherche.push() multiple times
  }

function lancement_scraping() {
  
  console.log(recherche); //shows recherche as empty array


//window.close()
}
