Hi!
Has anyone get the empty_value property of a MerchantPortal GUI form element to work?

$builder->add(
            static::FIELD_STORES,
            ChoiceType::class,
            [
                'choices' => $options[static::OPTION_STORE_CHOICES],
                'multiple' => true,
                'label' => static::LABEL_STORES,
                'required' => false,
                'empty_data' => [],
                'attr' => [
                    'placeholder' => static::PLACEHOLDER_STORES,
                ],
                'property_path' => 'storeRelation.idStores',
            ]
        );

I would like to set some default values for the forms, so in this case we only have one store, it should not be selected everytime, but regardless, what I put there it is not reflected in MP.
Currently I defaulted back to changing the value in the DataProviders for the form, but I would like the empty_data to work, since this is exactly what it is for.
Has somebody any idea?

    what exactly are you trying to achieve? What do you want to happen if no store is selected? And was exactly is happening now?

    When creating a new product in MP I would like the store relation field to have the currently only present value prefilled, so that it does not need to be selected

    and what are you setting on the empty_data field?

    Tried it with

    'empty_data' => [1],
'empty_data' => ['DE'],

    yes, it should work like that... maybe the data provider is always overriding that? Better debug it and see what happens...
