Set default visual filter value within a M Connector

Question

Am currently developing an M web Connector and am recieving default value information for a filter from my endpoint. Would like to use this information to set the default value of the filter in Power BI when the filter is added.

For example currently when a filter is added it looks like this:

Where as I want it to look like this:

Would it be possible to do this within the M connector? And if so is there any documentation on how I can achieve this?

Thanks!

Hi Anonymous&nbsp;,Thanks for the prompt response!We already have a functional connector, what we are currently trying to figure out if we can specify a default value within GetRows() of the Table.View function.Currently our GetRows() is returning possible column values, and from my understanding this is what populates the filter selections from the image above. What I am wondering if is we can also specific a pre-selected value as well within GetRows() or is there some other way of doing this?Thanks,Kenrick
