Hi @silentnyte. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- In Refine, you can set a default value for a select component using the defaultValue property in the useSelect hook. Here is an example:

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Select } from "antd";  
  
interface ICategory {  
 id: number;  
 title: string;  
}  
  
const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {  
 const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({  
 resource: "categories",  
 defaultValue: 11,  
 });  
  
 return (  
 <Select  
 placeholder="Select a category"  
 style={{ width: 300 }}  
 {...selectProps}  
 />  
 );  
};

import { useSelect } from "@refinedev/antd";  
import { Select } from "antd";  
  
interface ICategory {  
 id: number;  
 title: string;  
}  
  
const PostCreate: React.FC = () => {  
 const { selectProps } = useSelect<ICategory>({  
 resource: "categories",  
 defaultValue: 11,  
 });  
  
 return (  
 <Select  
 placeholder="Select a category"  
 style={{ width: 300 }}  
 {...selectProps}  
 />  
 );  
};

In this example, the defaultValue is set to 11. The useSelect hook sends a useMany query to the backend with the defaultValue and appends it to the options of the Select component, ensuring the default values exist in the current options array. For more information, refer to the useSelect documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/antd/hooks/field/useSelect/) and useMany documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/hooks/data/useMany/). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Hello @silentnyte was bot's answer sufficient for you?

The above is not sufficient when using Chakra you also need to useEffect setValue.
