Setting default value on a lookup field in canvas apps

Hi,

I am new to Power Apps. I wish to set a default value on a lookup field in canvas apps. I have a Dataverse table "Sales Planner" with a field "sales person" looking up to another Dataverse table "Sales Person Registry".

In the canvas apps, I wish to set the default to "John Doe" if the form is new.

How should I do that?

Appreciate your advice.

Stephen

Hi @Anonymous ,

Have you tried something like the following?

LookUp(SalesPersonRegistry, Name = "John Doe")
