Get element value from react ui material elements (ex: listitemtext)

I have put an onClick() event in which I call a function to get the value of any element clicked inside the HTML body and display it inside a web component.

<div id="root" onclick="traiteClick(event)"></div>

This is how I get the clicked object inside the traiteClick() function.

let object = document.getElementById(evt.target.id).innerHTML;

This works with HTML elements since I can give them ids but not with my ui material elements.

<ListItemText className='test' primary="Date de naissance" secondary={artist?.lifeSpan?.begin} />

I tied using getElementsByClassName but it didn't work. Do you have any suggestions?

The read-only target property of the Event interface is a reference to the object onto which the event was dispatched.

You don't need to get an id and use it to find an object. Just use event.target or event.currentTarget.
