    const data = [
        {   
            id: '1',
            name: 'Tully Stark',
            submittedData:'mmmmm'
        },
        {
            id:'2',
            name: 'Nalani Romanova',
        },
         {
            id:'3',
            name: 'Nalani Romanova',
            submittedData:'mmmmm'

You can use Array.filter(), this will return all matching items.

const data = [ { id: '1', name: 'Tully Stark', submittedData:'mmmmm' }, { id:'2', name: 'Nalani Romanova', }, { id:'3', name: 'Nalani Romanova', submittedData:'mmmmm' } ]

const submitDate = data.filter(item => item.submittedData)
console.log(submitDate)
.as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }

the .find by definition only returns the first matching object.

Array.prototype.find()
The find() method returns the value of the first element in the provided array that satisfies the provided testing function. If no values satisfy the testing function, undefined is returned.

You need to use .filter

const submitDate = data.filter(item => item.submittedData)


const data = [{
    id: '1',
    name: 'Tully Stark',
    submittedData: 'mmmmm'
  },
  {
    id: '2',
    name: 'Nalani Romanova',
  },
  {
    id: '3',
    name: 'Nalani Romanova',
    submittedData: 'mmmmm'
  }
]

const submitDate = data.filter(item => item.submittedData)

console.log(submitDate)
