Expected behavior dynamically populate dropdown Actual behavior explicitly populating dropdown Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) This is code from your sample where dropdown values are explicitly populated. I have data from a service - need syntax for linking data source. getLocations() { this.dataService.getLocations().subscribe(data => { this.locations = data; });
Location Action Another action Something else here Separated link

Dear @dianalawless
It is just angular-2 attribute syntax.
<div [attr.href]="yourhref">
It binds attribute href to the result of expression yourhref.
We do not have example of how to dynamically populate dropdown, we will add it as soon as possible.
For more information I refer you to: https://angular.io/guide/displaying-data
To utilize the selected results, you can add onClick function, liek below:
<div class="dropdown" mdbDropdown>
<button
mdbDropdownToggle
mdbBtn
color="primary"
class="dropdown-toggle waves-light"
type="button"
mdbWavesEffect
>
Dropdown primary
</button>
<div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-primary">
<a class="dropdown-item" *ngFor="let d of data" target="_blank" [attr.href]="d.href" (click)="onClick(d.name)">{{
d.name
}}</a>
</div>
and then in your TS:
onClick(e) {
console.log(e);
}
you can do what you want.
Hope it helps!
Best, Bartosz.

Dear @dianalawless
Below is an example of how to dynamically populate dropdown:
HTML:
<div class="col-md-12 mx-auto my-5">
<div class="dropdown" mdbDropdown>
<button
mdbDropdownToggle
mdbBtn
color="primary"
class="dropdown-toggle waves-light"
type="button"
mdbWavesEffect
>
Dropdown primary
</button>
<div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-primary">
<a class="dropdown-item" *ngFor="let d of data" target="_blank" [attr.href]="d.href">{{
d.name
}}</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
TS:
data: any = [];
ngOnInit() {
this.data = [
{
name: 'Angular',
href: 'https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/',
},
