How to Bind an Array of Objects to v-select in Vue.js: Display One Value and Access the Full Object

Vue.js offers a powerful library for building user interfaces, and v-select, a Vue component from Vuetify, is an excellent tool for allowing users to select an option from a dropdown list. However, one common challenge developers face is how to bind complex data—like an array of objects—to a v-select while still displaying only a specific property in the dropdown.

The Challenge

Imagine you have an array of membership objects, each containing multiple fields of data, including the membership ID, username, expiration date, and profile name. Your goal is to display only the membershipProfileName in the dropdown list, but you want to ensure that when a user selects an option, you can still access the entire membership object, not just the name.

Example Membership Array

Here's a sample array of membership objects:

When using v-select, you might initially set it up like this:

In this setup, when the user selects a name, selectedMember only holds the membershipProfileName and not the entire membership object.

The Solution

To solve this problem effectively, you can use the return-object prop in your v-select component. This simple addition allows v-select to return the entire object instead of just the selected member's name.

Step-By-Step Implementation

Add the return-object Prop: Update your v-select component to include the return-object prop.

Conclusion

By adding the return-object prop to your v-select, you retain access to the entire object while displaying a specific property. This approach helps streamline your data handling and enhances the user experience by providing a clean and clear selection option.
