ASYNC/AWAIT for Chaining multiple http.requests - node.js

Question

How would I go about chaining an http.request within the response of another http.request and then push them into an array before going to the front end?
router.get("/:team", (req, res) => {
let teamParams = teams[req.params.team];
twitter.get("search/tweets", teamParams, (err, data, resp) => {
let tweetArr = [];
let text = data.statuses;
text.map((dat) => {
let im = dat.entities.urls[0].url
dat.links = im;
tweetArr.push(dat);
});
res.json({ message: "Success", tweets: tweetArr });
});
});
Currently I get my data object loop through it and add a url as a property. Now I want to chain another http request to make an API call to another API and get a response, before I use res.json.
I've tried a workaround with promises but I can never return the full object with the response from the second api call.
This is what I have so far, I have managed to get to a point where my object contains the requests from the second link. How can I return all the tweets into an array I can finally resolve?
require("dotenv").config();
const Twitter = require("twitter");
const API_IMAGE_PREV = "http://api.linkpreview.net/";
const request = require("request");
const key = process.env.IM_PREV_KEY;
let twitter = new Twitter({
consumer_key: process.env.TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY,
consumer_secret: process.env.TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET,
bearer_token: process.env.TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN
});
let teamParams = {
q: "from:ManUtdMEN MUFC",
count: 2,
result_type: "recent"
};
var third = function thirdUrl(next) {
var promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
next.forEach(x => {
let ln = x.links;
const options = {
url: "http://api.linkpreview.net/?key=" + key + "&q=" + ln,
method: "get"
};
request.get(options, (err, req, res) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
x.desc = res;
}
});
});
});
};
var second = function secondUrl(previous) {
var promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
let p = previous.statuses;
let links = [];
p.forEach(t => {
let l = t.entities.urls[0].url;
t.links = l;
});
resolve(p);
});
return promise;
};
twitter
.get("search/tweets", teamParams)
.then(second)
.then(third)
.catch(function(error) {
throw error;
});

What module are you using for the http requests? Here's an example with axios.
const axios = require('axios');
router.get("/:team", (req, res) => {
let teamParams = teams[req.params.team];
twitter.get("search/tweets", teamParams, async (err, data, resp) => {
let tweetArr = [];
let text = data.statuses;
text.map((dat) => {
let im = dat.entities.urls[0].url
dat.links = im;
tweetArr.push(dat);
});
let res = await Promise.all(tweetArr.map(dat => axios.get(dat.links));
res.json({ message: "Success", tweets: res });
});
})
