set DefaultSelectedItems if IsBlank

Hi. I am trying to set a default value in DefaultSelectedItems combobox, if the field is blank. It is a choice field "Yes", "No". I set a default value on the Sharepoint as "No", however it is still blank on the app. I wanted to set it to "No" as default, if nothing is selected.

I have tried a couple of formulas like:

If(IsBlank(IDVal.Text ),"No") - based on blank ID, if document is new, fresh open, so it defaults to "No"

If(IsBlank(ReccuringVal.Selected.Value),"No") -based on the field itself

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Please try and change the Text property of the Combo box to:
ThisItem.ChoiceColumnName

I made this modification and it seems could work.

Hi @batmanMon ,

Assuming you only want "No" in New mode

{ Value: If( YourFormName.Mode = FormMode.New, "No", ThisItem.YourFieldName.Value ) }
