React - You have provided an out-of-range value `undefined` for the select component

I'm creating a material-UI dialogue form that posts data to my API. One of the fields in my backend database is binary and takes in only two possible options. How can I reflect that in my dialogue code below?

Here is my Fulltrace Back error:

Material-UI: You have provided an out-of-range value undefined for the select (name="category") component. Consider providing a value that matches one of the available options or ''. The available values are personal, social.

The possible options for this specific field are either personal or social.

I tried doing this, letting my dialogue push the correct responses:

<MenuItem value={'personal'}> personal </MenuItem>
<MenuItem value={'social'}> social </MenuItem>

But that does not work and I understand why. Just not sure how to solve the error now as I'm not too savvy with React/JS in general.

export default function CreateBucket() {
    const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);

    const handleClickOpen = () => {
      setOpen(true);
    };
  
    const handleClose = () => {
      setOpen(false);
    };
  

    const history = useHistory();
    const initialFormData = Object.freeze({
        name: '',
        category: '',
        about: '',
    });

    const [formData, updateFormData] = useState(initialFormData);

    const handleChange = (e) => {
        updateFormData({
            ...formData,
            // Trimming any whitespace
            [e.target.name]: e.target.value.trim(),
        });
    };

    const handleSubmit = (e) => {
        e.preventDefault();
        console.log(formData);

        axiosInstance
            .post(`create/bucket`, {
                name: formData.name,
                category: formData.category,
                about: formData.about,
            })
            .then((res) => {
                history.push('/');
                console.log(res);
                console.log(res.data);
            });
    };

    const classes = useStyles();

    return(
        <Fragment>
        <Fab color="primary" aria-label="add"  onClick={handleClickOpen} variant="extended">
        <AddIcon className={classes.extendedIcon}/>
        Create Bucket
        </Fab>
        <Dialog open={open} onClose={handleClose} aria-labelledby="form-dialog-title">
        <DialogTitle id="form-dialog-title">Create your Bucket</DialogTitle>
        <DialogContent>
            <DialogContentText>
            Get started! Make your bucket by telling us a little bit more.
            </DialogContentText>
                <form>            
                <FormControl>
                <InputLabel> What type of Bucket </InputLabel>
                <Select
                id="category"
                label="Bucket Type"
                name="category"
                fullWidth
                required
                variant="filled"
                onChange={handleChange}
                margin="normal"
                className={classes.formControl}
                >
                <MenuItem value={'personal'}> personal </MenuItem>
                <MenuItem value={'social'}> social </MenuItem>
                </Select>
                </FormControl>
                </form>
            </DialogContent>
            <DialogActions>
            <Button 
            type="submit"
            fullWidth
            variant="contained"
            color="primary"
            className={classes.submit}
            onClick={handleSubmit}
            >
            Create Bucket
            </Button>
        </DialogActions>
        </Dialog>
    </Fragment>  
    );
}

How can I implement changes to solve my traceback error?

Setting the defaultValue on the select component resolves the issue for me. Similar to input elements, selects have both a value and a default value. The default value can serve as a placeholder. When the value changes, the selected value becomes the current value. This approach ensures that the warning message "MUI: You have provided an out-of-range value undefined" no longer appears.

Here is my component

 <TextField
 name={`travelers.${index}.countryOfIssue`}
id="countryOfIssue"
defaultValue={""} // Sets the default value to empty string
select
label="Country of Passport Issuance"
/>

The Select Options

  <MenuItem value="" >
    -- Select Country --  // The default option of empty string
       </MenuItem>
            {countries.map((country) => (
         <MenuItem key={country.label + country.code}
            value={country.code}>
              <CountryFlag label={country.label}
              countryCode={country.code}/> {country.label}{' '}
     </MenuItem>
   ))}
                                                                            
                                                                            ```

None of these solved my issue where I wanted to have a placeholder but I have a state value and an onChange event inside my textfield. Once you set the initial state you cannot have a placeholder.

My fix below is to have the value of 'place holder text' in initial state and inside the list of options. I disabled and grayed out the value once initially loaded so it looks like a placeholder.

<TextField
   margin="dense"
   select
   fullWidth
   placeholder='Fuel Type'
   value={fuelType}
   onChange={handleFuelChange}
   // defaultValue="Fuel Type"
   type="text"
   name="fuelType"
   >
   {options3.map((option) => {
   return (option.label === "Fuel Type" ? <MenuItem key={option.label} disabled value={option.label + "," + option.carbonFactor}>
   <span style={{ color: "rgb(156, 156, 156)" }}>{option.label}</span>
   </MenuItem> : <MenuItem key={option.label} value={option.label + "," + option.carbonFactor}>
   {option.label}
   </MenuItem>)
   })}
</TextField>

Make sure you provide value prop to <Select> component, put value="" in case you don't want any of the options to be selected by default or value="personal" in case you want personal to be selected by default.

Her is mine with value={formData.category} it takes the value selected from state.

export default function CreateBucket() {
  const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);

  const handleClickOpen = () => {
    setOpen(true);
  };
  
  const handleClose = () => {
    setOpen(false);
  };
  

  const history = useHistory();
  const initialFormData = Object.freeze({
    name: '',
    category: '',
    about: '',
  });

  const [formData, updateFormData] = useState(initialFormData);

  const handleChange = (e) => {
    updateFormData({
      ...formData,
      // Trimming any whitespace
      [e.target.name]: e.target.value.trim(),
    });
  };

  const handleSubmit = (e) => {
    e.preventDefault();
    console.log(formData);

    axiosInstance
      .post(`create/bucket`, {
        name: formData.name,
        category: formData.category,
        about: formData.about,
      })
      .then((res) => {
        history.push('/');
        console.log(res);
        console.log(res.data);
      });
  };

  const classes = useStyles();

  return(
    <Fragment>
      <Fab color="primary" aria-label="add"  onClick={handleClickOpen} variant="extended">
        <AddIcon className={classes.extendedIcon}/>
        Create Bucket
      </Fab>
      <Dialog open={open} onClose={handleClose} aria-labelledby="form-dialog-title">
        <DialogTitle id="form-dialog-title">Create your Bucket</DialogTitle>
        <DialogContent>
          <DialogContentText>
            Get started! Make your bucket by telling us a little bit more.
          </DialogContentText>
          <form>            
            <FormControl>
              <InputLabel> What type of Bucket </InputLabel>
              <Select
                id="category"
                label="Bucket Type"
                name="category"
                fullWidth
                required
                variant="filled"
                onChange={handleChange}
                margin="normal"
                value={formData.category}
                className={classes.formControl}
              >
                <MenuItem value={'personal'}> personal </MenuItem>
                <MenuItem value={'social'}> social </MenuItem>
              </Select>
            </FormControl>
          </form>
        </DialogContent>
        <DialogActions>
          <Button 
            type="submit"
            fullWidth
            variant="contained"
            color="primary"
            className={classes.submit}
            onClick={handleSubmit}
          >
            Create Bucket
          </Button>
        </DialogActions>
      </Dialog>
    </Fragment>  
  );
}

It is exactly what it says on the tin:

Material-UI: You have provided an out-of-range value undefined for the select (name="category") component. Consider providing a value that matches one of the available options or ''. The available values are personal, social.

When you create a Select it wants you to provide initial value, which can be personal, social or an empty string. You don't provide any value, so it get confused

 <Select
            id="category"
            value={formData.category}
            label="Bucket Type"

will make it stop complaining.
