In this answer, it was explained to me to use selectItem to get the select event.

You should be using $event to get the selected Items as below
$event
Model: {{ model | json }} clicked item {{clickedItem}}
Model: {{ model | json }}
Your method should be as
selectedItem(item){ this.clickedItem=item.item; console.log(item); }
