Take for example
{ label: "Contacts", p|age: "/contacts" },
When the cursor is on page, doing vi" selects , page: and not the subsequent quotee, /contacts.
What can be done to solve this issue?
In Vim, when doing vi", how do you only select things inside the quotes and not things between the quotes

Well, the behaviour you describe is expected and documented so there is no "issue" to speak of.
From :help a":
Selects the text from the previous quote until the next quote.
What you want is something that doesn't exist in Vim, a "next text object" text object.
There are a few old but still working snippets floating around for that (ask your favourite search engine), as well as plugins.
