Is there a way to capture results from on(data) event into a global variable in splunkjs ?

[harithivakarnad]

I have a button on my HTML dashboard. I need to display some details from a search event on click of that button, but the issue here is am unable to get the data from data event into a global variable.

Below is the reference code:
var mysearch=splunkjs.mvc.Components.getInstance("search1");
var myResults = mysearch.data('results',{
output_mode: 'json',
count: 0
});
var resultdata=[];
myResults.on("data",function(){
resultdata=myResults.collection().toJSON();
});
