here is my code:

index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8" />
  <title>AngularJS Plunker</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://angular-ui.github.com/ng- grid/css/ng-grid.css" />
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" />

  <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.2/angular.min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://angular-ui.github.com/ng-grid/lib/ng-grid.debug.js"></script>
  <script src="app.js"></script>
</head>

<body ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <div class="gridStyle" ng-grid="gridOptions"></div>
    <div class="selectedItems">Selected ID:{{mySelections[0].id}}</div><br><br>

</body>

</html>

app.js

var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ngGrid']);
app.controller('MyCtrl', function($scope) {
  $scope.mySelections = [];
  $scope.myData = [{empno: 111, name: "Moroni", id: 1},
                   {empno: 222, name: "Tiancum", id: 2},
                   {empno: 333, name: "Jacob", id: 3},
                   {empno: 444, name: "Nephi", id: 4},
                   {empno: 555, name: "Akon", id: 5},
                   {empno: 666, name: "Enos", id: 6}];
  $scope.gridOptions = { 
    data: 'myData',
    selectedItems: $scope.mySelections,
    multiSelect: false
  };
});

Q1: I want to hide the id column in ng-grid. Q2: After hiding the id column, may I get the id value when I select some row? How can modify the code?

You can set visible: false right in the column definition:

$scope.gridOptions = { 
    data: 'myData',
    selectedItems: $scope.mySelections,
    multiSelect: false,
    columnDefs: [
        {field: 'empno', displayName: 'empno', visible:false},
        {field:'name', displayName:'name'}
    ]
};
