You are losing the context of "this" when calling "promise.then(..)" with a "function" parameter. Try using the "fat arrow" syntax to allow TypeScript maintaining the context for you:

getSite(...).then(data => {

if (data) {

this.nombreSitio = "your value";

}

});

Based on your initial screenshot - your async code is executed in parallel. You try to log in and get data at the same time within different promises.

You should be calling Alfresco JS Api methods after login promise is resolved, for example:

api.login('admin', 'admin').then(ticket => {

sites.getSite(...).then(data => {

....

});

You already import 'AlfrescoApiService' that reduces the code, you may also want to use 'AlfrescoAuthenticationService' to perform the login.

Here's the snippet code for the component that works for me and retrieves the site data, I've created a new public site 'demo1':

Please note that the JSON payload that comes with the JS API call is wrapped into the "entry":

{"entry":{"role":"SiteManager","visibility":"PUBLIC","guid":"08918280-26ba-4e9a-a2a7-a31075184144","id":"demo1","title":"demo1"}}

So you might need binding your properties to the "data.entry.id"
