SharePoint JSON Formatting

Is there a way to preselect a list item from view. I'm using connected webparts and i badly need to load the page with a value selected in one view. Please let me know

Naveen Karla I assume you mean that you want a particular item in your list to be selected when the page and list loads so that you get the connected web parts showing immediately, rather than having to select an item. So in the example below, if could be loaded with the village of Los Gallardos already pre-selected then the Bing Map, YouTube video and Trip Advisor restaurants would already be displaying:

 

I did look into this when I created this page; I agree that would be a better user experience than having the empty Embed web parts displaying, but unfortunately I didn't come up with a solution and  don't think it's possible.

    Naveen Karla unfortunately I can't do anything with SPFx on my company tenant so have to use out-of-the-box functionality.
