{
    "important": false,
    "headline": "Selection Headline",
    "background": "http://link.to.image",    
    "action": null,
    "data": null    
}

Property syntax of selection object.

Property	Type	Default Value	Mandatory	Since Version	Description
`important`	`boolean`	`false`	No	0.1.110	Indicates if the selection is important. This property only has an effect if the application is controlled with mouse or touch. If this property is set to `true`, the corresponding content item action will only be executed if the item has the focus. Note: Since version 0.1.136, the item also has the focus when the cursor is over it and the hover effect is set to preselect (Settings → Hover Effect → Preselect).
`headline`	`string`	`null`	No	0.1.111	The headline of the content that is used if the corresponding content item has the focus. This headline is attached as sub-headline to the content headline. If the content does not have a headline, this headline is used for that.
`background`	`string`	`null`	No	0.1.110	The background image that is used if the corresponding content item has the focus. This property has no effect if the content is displayed in a panel.
`action`	`string`	`null`	No	0.1.110	The selection action that is executed if the corresponding content item becomes the focus. Please see Internal Actions for possible values.
`data`	`object`	`null`	No	0.1.110	The additional data of the selection action that is used if the action is executed. Please see Internal Actions for possible values.
