How does one set "selected" option using Editor.Select2 with AJAX options?

Hi,

I have been having some fun with Select2 and Editor, and am slowly making progress. My final hurdle is to set the "selected" option in the Select2 dropdowns (I have two).

I need to replace 'Caption' and 'ID' in the snippet below with the actual values of the text and the value of the option respectively when a record is edited.

"templateSelection": function (data) {
    console.log(data);  // Simply displays the placeholder so is not worth much
    return 'Caption' || 'ID';
 },

The text is displayed in the table, so I am hoping I can get it from there somehow, and the value is the actual item being edited in the Select2 control.

The complete code is as follows:

(function ($) {
    $(document).ready(function () {

        var filter;
        var job_titles;

        var editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor({
            ajax: {
                url: 'jobdescription',
                headers: {'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')}
            },
            table: '#indexTable',
            idSrc: 'id',
            fields: [
                {
                    "label": "Occupation Group:",
                    "name": "occgroup_id",
                    "type": "select2",
                    "data": "occgroup_id",
                    "opts": {

                            console.log(data);
                            return 'Caption' || 'ID';
                        },
                        "minimumInputLength": 3,
