How can I lookup multiple records in a list to the multi-person column in another power apps form?

There is a multi-person column in my power apps form. I want to set default that lookup the records in another list 'Approver List'.
 
Approver List:
Type     PIC (person select field)
A          Adrian
A          Ben
A          Candy
B          Debbie

In the power apps form, there is a multi-person select column.
I would like to lookup all PIC when Type = A. [In this case it should be Adrian, Ben & Candy]
How can I set the DefaultSelectedItems of this column?

    I assume this is sharepoint / Microsoft List is that correct @AdrianChang?

    I have done a test on my end and you can do the below on the App -> On Start or according to your logic on specific event
    ForAll(Filter('Approval List',ApprovalType.Value="A"),Collect(Y,Approver))
    Now Y should be holding your default approval list and you will need to set it on your Multiperson card default value
