How to get Future[Seq[Person]] instead of Seq[Future[Person]]

Question

I have two external call which

1. Which gives Future[Seq[People]]
2. Which takes person_id and returns person_status as Future[String]

I need to update each person status using second call from the sequence available in first call. This is how I tried,

getFuturePeople.map( (seqPeople : Seq[People]) => {
     seqPeople.map(person => getStatus(person._id).status).map(status => {
     //Update status for this person but I get Seq[Future[Peoson]]
   }) 
})

Answer 1

Use can use Future.sequence to transform the result, eg:

val futureOfSeq = Future.sequence(seqOfFuture)
