Choices function - Default Value Blank

[NamM_]

Hey Power Apps Community, this might be a quick one, but i couldn't find the solution anywhere. I have a dropdown with choices connected to a sharepoint list and the default value shall be empty, but momentarily it's showing the first coloumn. Thanks for your help 🙂 Cheers Nam

Hi @NamM_ ,

Change the AllowEmptySelection of the drop-down to true.

Hi @WarrenBelz,
thanks for the input, but it seems to be not working. I want to have the dropdown by default to be empty.

@NamM_ ,

It should be blank with those settings - you really should not have to do this, but make the Items 

Ungroup(
   Table(
      {
         Item: 
         Table(
            {Value: Blank()}
         )
      },
      {
         Item: 
         Choices('AD Daten'.Mitarbeiterkategorie)
      }
   ),
   "Item"
)

and also clear the Default.

Sorry for the late reply, haven't been in the office. 
So, after saving and reopening the app as itself it worked perfectly with "AllowEmptySelection". 

Thanks for your help @WarrenBelz 🙂
