Modal contains livewire

#1

I’m returning a modal template via AJAX.
The modal itself includes a livewire component.
Inside that component, “@this” returns “index.js:31 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘$wire’ of undefined” in the console.

Do I need to re-include @livewireScripts ?!

#2

Is @this a custom blade directive? I can’t find it in the documentation.
