I was planning to get a data from the server every minute. However, if I run this code, this function is being called repeatedly. On the other hand, if I added date.getMilliseconds == 0 in the condition, it won't process any results.
Do you have any suggestions on how to run the function once every 1 minute?

async update() {

 var date = new Date();

 if (date.getSeconds() == 0) {

   var newdata = await getData(1);

   array.shift();

   array.push(newdata); 

  }

}

Since it looks like you don't have fine control over when update is called, one option would be to set a boolean to true every time getSeconds() === 0 (set it to false otherwise), and then only run the real code when the flag is false and getSeconds() === 0:

let hasRun = false;

// ...

async update() {

 var date = new Date();

 const secs = date.getSeconds();

 if (secs !== 0) {

   hasRun = false;

 } else if (secs === 0 && hasRun === false) {

   hasRun = true;

   // your code

   var newdata = await getData(1);

   array.shift();

   array.push(newdata); 

  }

}

An alternative that might require less resources due to not creating Dates every frame would be to have a separate function that toggles the boolean, set with a setInterval that runs every 60 seconds, no Dates involved:

let hasRun = false;

setInterval(() => hasRun = false, 60000);

async update() {

  if (hasRun) return;

  hasRun = true;

  // your code

}

(of course, you could also try setInterval(update, 60000) if the framework allows it)
