we have a custom field for “Source”, configured as dropdown and a default value specified.
Anyway you can see that this default value does not get applied, especially when creating new bookings by API

In any case you have to pass value, even if there is default value.
The default value is just value that you can set by default in user interface.

please change this. It really should not depend which way the appointment is created.
When can you get this done?

you have to pass value for each field.

but thats why there are default values.
So that I do not have to pass anything and they get applied?

As i said before - default value is predefined value for inputs in user interface.
You have to pass all values.

API returns you which value is default. Now it is work for your code to process it how you need.
