Javascript - How to return string from a function by using ternary operator

Question

I need to get string / title from last product in my array but only after I filter all my items to get only active products, and I've tried something like this:

function getProductNoteTitle() {
if (data.product && data.product.length>0) {
  var result = data.product.filter(
    item => item.productStatusId === ProductStatusEnum.Active
  );
  result.length > 0 ? return([result.length - 1].title) : return 'Not Set';
 }
}

But this wont work because I got an error on this line:

result.length > 0 ? return([result.length - 1].title) : return 'Not Set';

which says Expression expected.

return is not keyword that forms an expression, you cannot use it as the operand of something else. You want to return (… ? … : …); instead - notice the return …; being a statement. — Bergi

Does the following work for you:

return result.length > 0 ? [result.length - 1].title : 'Not Set';
