Select – Once UI

The Select component offers a dropdown menu for selecting from a list of options. It's built on top of the DropdownWrapper and Input components, providing a consistent user experience with other form controls.

Select

const [selectedCountry, setSelectedCountry] = useState("");

<Select
  id="basic-select"
  label="Choose a country"
  value={selectedCountry}
  options={[
    { label: "United States", value: "us" },
    { label: "Canada", value: "ca" },
    { label: "United Kingdom", value: "uk" },
    { label: "Australia", value: "au" }
  ]}
  onSelect={country => setSelectedCountry(country)}
/>

Searchable

Enable search functionality to filter options in large lists.

Searchable

const [selectedCountry, setSelectedCountry] = useState("");

<Select
  id="searchable-select"
  label="Choose a country"
  value={selectedCountry}
  searchable
  options={[
    { label: "United States", value: "us" },
    { label: "Canada", value: "ca" },
    { label: "United Kingdom", value: "uk" },
    { label: "Australia", value: "au" },
    { label: "Germany", value: "de" },
    { label: "France", value: "fr" },
    { label: "Japan", value: "jp" },
    { label: "Brazil", value: "br" }
  ]}
  onSelect={country => setSelectedCountry(country)}
/>

Empty state

Customize the message shown when no options match the search query.

Empty State

const [selectedCountry, setSelectedCountry] = useState("");

<Select
  id="empty-state-select"
  label="Choose a country"
  value={selectedCountry}
  searchable
  emptyState={
    <Text onBackground="neutral-weak">
      No matching countries found
    </Text>
  }
  options={[
    { label: "United States", value: "us" },
    { label: "Canada", value: "ca" },
    { label: "United Kingdom", value: "uk" },
    { label: "Australia", value: "au" }
  ]}
  onSelect={country => setSelectedCountry(country)}
/>

Multiple selection

Set multiple to allow selecting more than one option. The value and onSelect callbacks receive arrays when multiple mode is enabled.

Multiple selection

const [tags, setTags] = useState<string[]>([]);

<Select
id="tags-select"
label="Tags"
multiple
value={tags}
options={[
  { label: "Design", value: "design" },
  { label: "Engineering", value: "engineering" },
  { label: "Product", value: "product" },
]}
onSelect={(value) => setTags(value as string[])}
/>
