}))

}, 100);

Here's my background.js code. What i'm trying to achieve is notify my popup.js code that the api calls have been executed succesfully. I need to sendResponse inside injectionResult closure because I want to send the api call response back to popup.js.
How can I achieve that and where should I put return true?
UPDATE: This question does not solve my problem if I still use executeScript. sendResponse not waiting for async function or Promise's resolve
I ended up not using executeScript anymore and it's working
