[DROPDOWN] - Set the default selected value for dropdown that use Remote (API).

[banyurachman]

I have a question about the dropdown that uses remote (API). I selected some items and save it to my database. Then if I want to edit the data, I want to it shows the selected item that I select it before. How it make it works? Because I can't put the selected:true on the API response because the item just shows 10 item that best matches with the query keyword.

Thanks!

Have you tried making a request on page load to get a list of the selected items and setting the dropdown values to these and setting them as selected?

same question, there's a way to set up selected value from api response?

I think the use case can also like this:

I have a working search dropdown with API, then I want to copy the first dropdown into new dinamically created dropdown.
