Execute http post request before directive (AngularJS retrieve data via AJAX before Directive runs)

here what you have to do: - add new variable to your $scope :$scope.resultLoaded = false; - change the post success to this:

success(function(data) {   
 $scope.result = makeTableFrom(data);
 $scope.resultLoaded = true; 
}

-in your html you use it as follows:

<div ng-if='resultLoaded'>
  <table map-activity>...
</div>
