Set Windows SDK version in CMakePresets.json

Using Visual Studio's built-in CMake support, how does one specify the Windows SDK version that should be used (in CMakePresets.json)?

I'm trying to use the v140 toolchain; that is:

"toolset": {
"value": "v140",
"strategy": "external"
},

But Visual Studio wants to use the latest SDK installed (even though the last Windows 10 SDK that is supposed to work with the v140 toolchain is 14393).
