Not able to import HTMLIonModalElement - ionic v4

I am using vs code.

Trying to import HTMLIonModalElement, but found out it’s not been exported.

I am trying to return modal from invoked function but not able to set return type.

async addTodoDialog(todoItem?: Todo): Promise<HTMLIonModalElement> {
    const modal = await this.modalController.create({
      component: AddTodoComponent,
      componentProps: { todoItem }
    });
    await modal.present();
    return modal;
  }

Getting error

ReferenceError: HTMLIonModalElement is not defined

I already found this issue opened earlier, but can we have any alternate solution to this. [https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic/issues/14784](Link here #14784)

@peterpeterparker Do you have any resolution to this ?

Don’t import it 😉

async addTodoDialog(todoItem?: Todo) {
    const modal = await this.modalController.create({
      component: AddTodoComponent,
      componentProps: todoItem
    });
    await modal.present();
  }

You should open a question on the Ionic forum for support request
