Execute promises when all resolved (as DB Transactions)

by

I have two promises that need to act as Transactions, if one of them fails, a "rollback" should occur.

For example: When I create a user I want to send a confirmation email, but what happens if there is an error on sending the email, the user will be created but will never get a confirmation.

await saveUser(user)
await sendEmail(user)

If I switch the order, what happens when something goes wrong on creating the user? It will get a confirmation.

await sendEmail(user)
await saveUser(user)

I thought a Promise.all will do the trick, but it doesn’t.

await Promise.all([saveUser(user), sendEmail(user)]);

Is there a way to execute promises as transactions on Javascript? Promises should execute if and only if both of them resolve.
