How to write Promise chain?

Question

When I'm trying to make some database searching,I'd found two kind of codes to do this.But I don't know which is prefer and why..

// a.js
export default oracledb.createPool(configuration)

the first way(it seems work well,but not meet the promise specifications):

// b.js
import main from a.js;
main.then((pool)=>{
    pool.getConnection().then((connection)=>{
        connection.execute(sql).then((result)=>{
           console.log(result);
           connection.close();
        }).catch(err=>{
           if(connection){connection.close()}
        })
    });
})

here is the second way:

let connection;
main.then((pool)=>{
    return pool.getConnection()
}).then((connection)=>{
   return connection.execute(sql)
}).then((result)=>{
   console.log(result);
   connection.close();
}).catch(err=>{
   if (connection){connection.close()}
});

This problem may not just about database operation, but the right way to organize promise chain.Can anyone please help me?

Use This Documentation https://oracle.github.io/node-oracledb/doc/api.html

const mypw = ...  // set mypw to the hr schema password

async function run() {

  let connection;

  try {
    connection = await oracledb.getConnection(  {
      user          : "hr",
      password      : mypw,
      connectString : "localhost/XEPDB1"
    });

    const result = await connection.execute(
      `SELECT manager_id, department_id, department_name
       FROM departments
       WHERE manager_id = :id`,
      [103],  // bind value for :id
    );
    console.log(result.rows);

  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err);
  } finally {
    if (connection) {
      try {
        await connection.close();
      } catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
      }
    }
  }
}

run();
