I want to call a server side API but the problem is even before API call is made browser gets closed.

$(window).on('beforeunload ', function() {
  var date = Date.now();
  var params = {
    "accountid": localStorageService.get('accountid'),
    "refreshtoken": localStorageService.get('refreshtoken'),
    "date": date
  };
  accountSvc.browserClose(params).$promise
    .then(function(response) {

    }).catch(function(er) {
      console.log(er);
    });

});

You cannot use promises on close. You need to do sync calls. – mplungjan Dec 08 '16 at 07:05
Since your call is async the browser will close the page before your async operation can complete. I'm not sure if this is a good idéa, but I'll watch this with interest... – smoksnes Dec 08 '16 at 07:05
