JSHandle.evaluateHandle() method

This method passes this handle as the first argument to pageFunction.

Signature:

evaluateHandle(pageFunction: Function | string, ...args: unknown[]): Promise<JSHandle>;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
pageFunction	Function | string
args	unknown[]

Returns:

Promise<JSHandle>

Remarks

The only difference between jsHandle.evaluate and jsHandle.evaluateHandle is that jsHandle.evaluateHandle returns an in-page object (JSHandle).

If the function passed to jsHandle.evaluateHandle returns a Promise, then evaluateHandle.evaluateHandle waits for the promise to resolve and returns its value.

See Page.evaluateHandle() for more details.
