How can I add a drop down select option to an alert?

Hello! I am creating a small ionic list application. When users want to add or edit an item on the list, an alert prompt pops up and they have the option to type a name in the text field. My other field, quantity, is currently a text field, however, I would like to make this a drop down select option instead. Is there a way to do this? I’m new to ionic, so any help would be greatly appreciated! A snippet of my code is below.

  > async showPrompt(item?, index?) {

>       message: item ? "Please edit item...": "Please enter item",

>           placeholder: 'Name',
>           value: item ? item.name : null
>         },
>         {
>           name: 'quantity',
>           placeholder: 'Quantity',

>             if (index !== undefined) {
>               this.dataService.editItem(item, index);

>             else {
>               this.dataService.addItem(item);
>             }
>           }
>         }
>       ]
