Looking at the issue from a high level; I'm fetching data from an api and creating a CRUD page for it. The user can choose from a set of labels provided in the data.
Here is a code snippet illustrating my dilemma. The selected labels are denoted by the user.labels relationship, while the complete list of available labels that can be chosen from is represented by user.parent.grandparent.labels.
I've managed to sync the selection process. However, what's proving to be challenging is how to dynamically remove options that have already been selected from the list of choices in subsequent select fields.
angular.module('app', [])
.controller('select', ['$scope', '$filter', '$location',
function($scope, $filter, $location) {
$scope.user = {
"parent": {
"grandparent": {
"labels": [{
"id": 28,
"name": "Label 1",
}, {
"id": 17,
"name": "Label 2",
}, {
"id": 39,
"name": "Label 3",
}, {
"id": 77,
"name": "Label 4"
}, {
"id": 100,
"name": "Label 5"
}]
}
},
"labels": [{
"id": 28,
"name": "Label 1",
"meta": {
"score": 3
}
}, {
"id": 17,
"name": "Label 2",
"meta": {
"score": 5
}
}]
};
}

<div ng-app="app" ng-controller="select">
