    Hi@hong_yip,

    Do you want to assign a blank value within the Dropdown?

    Could you please tell me a bit more about the scenario?

    I have a test on my side, please take a try as below.

    In my scenario, I have set the Items property of a Dropdown as below:

    Filter(
     Table(
     {
     Value: LookUp(
     ManagersDepartment,
     'Manager''s Name' = "A",
     Dept_1
     )
     },
     {
     Value: LookUp(
     ManagersDepartment,
     'Manager''s Name'= "A",
     Dept_2
     )
     }
     ),
     !IsBlank(Value)
    )

    This is a correct format of a table:

    Table({Value: LookUp(ManagersDepartment,'Manager''s Name' = "A",Dept_1)},{Value: LookUp(ManagersDepartment,'Manager''s Name'= "A",Dept_2)})

    You should combine the Filter() with !IsBlank() to remove the blank value from the dropdown list.

    Hope it could help you.

    Regards,

    Qi
