Hey @adityakdofficial! You’ll need to define an instance for the List use in the Select setup.

I have explained this process on this thread

> Hey @witchakorn.wat! Since List Filter can now filter multiple lists, all collection lists with the fs-list-element = list attribute will be filtered. This can be fixed by adding an instance to a Common Parent element of the Custom Select and the list, or adding the instance definition to each element. I’m showing both options below Common Parent Element Instance defined on each element

Let me know if you need any more help!
