How to prepopulate Autocomplete SelectedItem - xaml

Question

From my previous post, it helped be to determine how to bind to selecteditems, How to bind to autocomplete selecteditem with ObservableCollection But now I'm trying to enhance that logic.
I'm trying to have items preselected when my View is initialized. I've tried multiple options, but I can't seem to get items preselected. May I get some assistance. My current code below
Keyword Class
public class Keyword : ObservableObject
{
private string _value;
public string Value
{
get { return _value; }
set { SetProperty(ref _value, value); }
}
}
ViewModel
private ObservableCollection<object> _selectedKeywords = new ObservableCollection<object>();
private ObservableCollection<Keyword> _keywords = new ObservableCollection<Keyword>();
public TestViewModel()
{
Keywords = new ObservableCollection<Keyword>()
{
new Keyword { Value = "Apples" },
new Keyword { Value = "Bananas" },
new Keyword { Value = "Celery" }
};
SelectedKeywords = new ObservableCollection<object>(Keywords.Where(x => x.Value == "Apples"));
}
public ObservableCollection<object> SelectedKeywords
{
get { return _selectedKeywords; }
set { SetProperty(ref _selectedKeywords, value); }
}
public ObservableCollection<Keyword> Keywords
{
get { return _keywords; }
set { SetProperty(ref _keywords, value); }
}
View
<autocomplete:SfAutoComplete MultiSelectMode="Token"
HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
VerticalOptions="EndAndExpand"
TokensWrapMode="Wrap"
Text="{Binding Keyword, Mode=TwoWay }"
IsSelectedItemsVisibleInDropDown="false"
Watermark="Add..."
HeightRequest="120"
SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedKeywords}"
DataSource="{Binding Keywords}">
</autocomplete:SfAutoComplete>

We have prepared sample from your code snippet and you have missed to add DisplayMemberPath property in the code snippet. Please find the sample from below location.

To make it preselected in your View Model set a value to the binding that you have binded on your View basically assign a value to SelectedKeywords
Something like:
SelectedKeywords = Keywords.FirstOrDefault();
You might need two-way binding not sure cause never used this control:
SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedKeywords, Mode=TwoWay}"
