How to get Selected Text from select2 when using <input>

Question

I am using the select2 control, loading data via ajax. This requires the use of the tag.

Now, I want to retrieve the selecte

Answer 1

In Select2 version 4 each option has the same properties of the objects in the list;

if you have the object

Obj = {
  name: "Alberas",
  description: "developer",
  birthDate: "01/01/1990"
}

then you retrieve the selected data

var data = $('#id-selected-input').select2('data');
console.log(data[0].name);
console.log(data[0].description);
console.log(data[0].birthDate);
