Basics
The default_value parameter is used to specify a default value for filter fields and parameter fields.
Avoid using
default_valuewithparameterif your data has values that include underscores.
An example of its usage is:
filter: order_region {
default_value: "Northeast"
}
Common challenges
If an explore parameter has a value specified by an always_filter parameter, then that setting overrides the default_value setting for the field.
