i would like to set my dropdowns default value to display one of the already created items, or make a new, empty one.

code for "Items" dropdown:

SortByColumns(Distinct(Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm:IskalnikZaposlenihTxt.Text,top:950}), Department), "Result")

Set the AllowEmptySelection property of the dropdown to true and use the following as the Items property for the dropdown

With({lst:Sort( Distinct( Office365Users.SearchUser( {searchTerm:IskalnikZaposlenihTxt.Text,top:950} ),Department ),Result ) }, Ungroup( Table( {myItems: Table({Result: Blank()})}, {myItems: lst} ),"myItems" )

you can set the Default property of the dropdown to Blank() or leave it as "1".

Thank you very much @Drrickryp , it works. But do you think its possible to hide the first "default" dropdown option? right now it shows like intended, but would it be possible to still keep the empty one in first place, but just make it not visiable in the app?

On the same note, would it be possible to create a department - the default one, with everyone in it? sort of like a department containing every department.
