Answer 1

Here you have an example

$("#profiles-thread").select2({
    minimumInputLength: 2,
    tags: [],
    ajax: {
        url: URL,
        dataType: 'json',
        type: "GET",
        quietMillis: 50,
        data: function (term) {
            return {
                term: term
            };
        },
        results: function (data) {
            return {
                results: $.map(data, function (item) {
                    return {
                        text: item.completeName,
                        slug: item.slug,
                        id: item.id
                    }
                })
            };
        }
    }
});

It's quite easy

In Version 4.0.2 slightly different Just in processResults and in result :

    processResults: function (data) {
        return {
            results: $.map(data.items, function (item) {
                return {
                    text: item.tag_value,
                    id: item.tag_id
                }
            })
        };
    }

You must add data.items in result. items is Json name :

{
  "items": [
    {"id": 1,"name": "Tetris","full_name": "s9xie/hed"},
    {"id": 2,"name": "Tetrisf","full_name": "s9xie/hed"}
  ]
}
