How to get the cell value from ng-grid

I am a beginner of AngularJS. I study the demo of ng-grid and have a question.

index.html

<script src="app.js"></script>
</head>

<body ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <div class="gridStyle" ng-grid="gridOptions"></div>
    <div class="selectedItems">{{mySelections}}</div><br><br>

</body>

</html>

app.js

var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ngGrid']);
app.controller('MyCtrl', function($scope) {
$scope.mySelections = [];
$scope.myData = [{name: "Moroni", id: 1},
                 {name: "Tiancum", id: 2},
                 {name: "Jacob", id: 3},
                 {name: "Nephi", id: 4},
                 {name: "Akon", id: 5},
                 {name: "Enos", id: 6}];
$scope.gridOptions = { 
data: 'myData',
selectedItems: $scope.mySelections,
multiSelect: true 
};

//$scope.mySelections_id = $scope.mySelections.length;

});

When I select the first row, the div of selectedItems will show [{"name":"Moroni","id":1}]. the result is OK. If I just want to get the value of cell [id] from selected row, how do I modify my code?

Use the afterSelectionChange callback to extract the ids from the selection to an other array.

$scope.gridOptions = { 
    data: 'myData',
    selectedItems: $scope.mySelections,
    multiSelect: true,
    afterSelectionChange: function () {
      $scope.selectedIDs = [];
      angular.forEach($scope.mySelections, function ( item ) {
        $scope.selectedIDs.push( item.id )
      });
    }
  };

now you can reference {{selectedIDs}} from the template and has all the selected ids in it. Or just the first: {{selectedIDs[0]}}
