To asynchronously load items in a v-select dropdown in Vuetify, you can use the items prop along with a method to fetch the data asynchronously. Here's an example of how you can do this:

  1. In your Vue component, define a data property to hold the items for the v-select:
1
2
3
4
5
data() {
  return {
    dropdownItems: []
  };
}


  1. In the mounted lifecycle hook or any other suitable place, call a method to fetch the data asynchronously:
 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
mounted() {
  this.fetchDropdownItems();
},
methods: {
  async fetchDropdownItems() {
    try {
      const response = await axios.get('https://example.com/api/items');
      this.dropdownItems = response.data;
    } catch (error) {
      console.error(error);
    }
  }
}


  1. Use the items prop in the v-select component to bind the fetched items:
1
<v-select v-model="selectedItem" :items="dropdownItems" label="Select an item"></v-select>


In this example, we're using axios to make an asynchronous request to fetch the dropdown items from an API endpoint. Once the data is fetched, we update the dropdownItems property with the response data. The v-select component is then bound to the dropdownItems and will display the fetched items in the dropdown.


Remember to handle any errors that may occur during the data fetching process to provide a better user experience.
