I want to clear selected Dropdown value for dropdown "Operation" and reset it to default value on selection of another dropdown named "Method" .

My dropdown population code as below :

<input type="dropdown" token="token_method" searchWhenChanged="true">
<label>Select Method:</label>
<fieldForLabel>METHOD</fieldForLabel>
<fieldForValue>METHOD</fieldForValue>
<search>
<query>| makeresults | eval API="party_interaction_rest",METHOD="Alle,GET,POST" |
append [| makeresults | eval API="ticket_mgmt_rest",METHOD="Alle,GET,POST,PATCH"] |
append [| makeresults | eval API="customer_management_rest",METHOD="Alle,GET,PATCH"] |
append [| makeresults | eval API="agreement_management_rest",METHOD="Alle,GET"] |
append [| makeresults | eval API="product_order_rest",METHOD="Alle,GET,POST,PATCH,DELETE"] |
append [| makeresults | eval API="product_inv_rest",METHOD="Alle,GET,POST,PATCH"] | eval METHOD=split(METHOD,",")
|mvexpand METHOD| table API METHOD | search API="$token_service$"</query>
</search>
<change>
<condition value="Alle">
<set token="token_method">*</set>
</condition>
</change>
<default>Alle</default>
<initialValue>Alle</initialValue>
</input>
<input type="dropdown" token="tkn_OPERATION">

In the change conditions for the METHOD dropdown add a reset to the operation token (note the form. prefix)

      <change>
        <condition value="Alle">
          <set token="token_method">*</set>
          <set token="form.tkn_OPERATION">*</set>
        </condition>
        <condition value="*">
          <set token="form.tkn_OPERATION">*</set>
        </condition>
      </change>

Something along the lines of the above, depending on your config

Hi @bowesmana  : I see the reset operation you have added. Do you know how we can do this in dashboard studio. 

I have two dropdowns. A & B.

On selection of values in A, it displays relevant values in B.
On changing selection in value A, dropdown B displays previous selection value first then listed with new selection values from A.

Regards,
PNV

This solution is good.
But after selection, if refresh the dashboard you will lose the selection.

That is problem i am facing

Any help please
