Ember - Within action, result is defined, returnvalue of same action logged in parent action is undefined? Why? - ember.js

Question

Quick and shortly I have following problem:
I have following two actions within a component in Ember:
createData: function(user) {
let collection = [];
for (let i = 0; i < user.posts.length; i++) {
let data = this.send('createSingleData',user.posts[i], user, 'post');
console.log(data);
collection.push(data);
}
return collection;
},
createSingleData: function(data, user, type) {
let entitySkeleton = {
name: data.place.name,
belongsTo: user.id,
position: {
data.place.location.longitude,
data.place.location.latitude
}
};
console.log(entitySkeleton);
return entitySkeleton;
}
the first log - within createSingleData, right before returning the logged value - writes the entitySkeleton as Object into the console - as expected.
However, the console.log(data) - within createData - writes 'undefined' to the console.
Is there any aspect of asynchrounosity I didn't respect?
P.S.:
I also logged any paramater within createSingleData, they are all set properly.
The variable collection also only gets pushed 'undefined'.

You cannot return the value from action, instead you can set property from the action.
how to return values from actions in emberjs
actions: {
PrintSomething: function() {
let obj = [{a: 'raj'}, {a: 'Prudvi'}, {a : 'thimappa'}]
console.log('before', obj);
this.send('returnSomething', obj);
console.log('after calling action', this.get('returnvalue'));
},
returnSomething: function(obj) {
obj.push({a: 'FSDFSDF'})
var data = obj;
this.set('returnvalue', data);
}
}
