I need to find a way to just capture the dropdown id, I don't want the whole object like this in my output.

Which prop can I use to capture just my selection ID? For example in a traditional HTML select can I ?
I can't believe kendo doesn't have this solution 

<DropDownList
textField={"description"}
  dataItemKey={"id"}
  value={form?.importLevelId}
  onChange={(evt) => {
  lists.importLevelId = evt.target.value;
  setForm({ ...form, importLevelId: evt.target.value });
  }}
  data={integrationSetupCombos?.importLevels}/>

My output:

importLevelId:
description: "Tactic"
id: 1

Hello, Rafael,

If the ID is needed the developer can get the ID directly from the object:

https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-md4etx?file=app/main.jsx

We can return only the ID, but then another developer may need the entire object.

Hi, Tejas,

Could you please provide me with more information on the needed functionalities?

Regarding the DropDownList in the KendoReact Form, where do you want to pass the id values of the items? In addition, I understood that you want to enable editing in the component. Is this correct? If this is the case, it will also be helpful if you could tell me your requirements for this implementation. For example, do you want the editing to be done externally, by double-clicking the items, or do you need something different?

I will be waiting for your reply and will be glad to assist you further.

Regards,
Wissam
