Hi,
The control type that you are referring to is known as an ARIA Combobox control, and there are some very strict implementation details to be aware of when building these that are good to know if in advance. You can read about all of these at
https://www.ssbbartgroup.com/blog/differences-aria-1-0-1-1-changes-rolecombobox/

This article also includes links to live examples for testing plus relevant GitHub archives as reusable components.

All the best,
Bryan
