Assign resolved promise to variable

I have a factory which returns token as 

var accessToken = Restangular.all(url);
            accessToken.one('token').get()
              .then(function(res) {
                deferred.resolve(res.data);
              })
              .catch(function(errRes) {
                deferred.reject(errRes);
              });
            return deferred.promise;

In my header Interceptor, I need to get the token. Tried below code :

  var accessToken;

              $injector.get('tokenService').accessToken().then(function(res) {
                accessToken = res.access_token;
              }, function(e) {
                // error
              });

             req.headers = _.extend({
                'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + accessToken
              }, req.headers);

Every time I get accessToken as undefined. There should be an easy way to achieve this.

Because you are forming req.headers outside accessToken()'s ajax call. Which tend to make your res.headers object with undefined access_token. Ideally you should wait until accessToken() ajax gets complete & set your res.headers code inside accessToken().then.

Factory

var accessToken = Restangular.all(url);
    return accessToken.one('token').get()
       .then(function(res) {
           return res.data;
       })
       .catch(function(errRes) {
          return errRes;
       });
}

Interceptor

var accessToken;
$injector.get('tokenService').accessToken().then(function(res) {
     accessToken = res.access_token;
     req.headers = _.extend({
         'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + accessToken
     }, req.headers);
}, function(e) {
     // error
});
