I have a multi-select bound to a collection. The label is bound to firstName while the value is bound to id.

For the initial value, I am passing the selected item to an object variable. Inside the object variable, there is the id of the assignedTo user.

I have put the initial value as the id of the assigned user, but it is not showing an data.

Can you try doing this: [selectedTask.assignedTo.id]
