Dynamic Select

The drop-down menu is a clear method of showing a list of data, allowing users to pick their choice from the list.
This input field is controlled by the dynamic field handler.

Note: For optimum results configure the dynamic_select field only when the search results are more than 100. In case of results lesser than 100, use the select field.
