How do I set the Dropdown component as mandatory in the UI Builder?

I’m having trouble making a drop-down field (component) mandatory. This UI Builder is a modal that will open in the Service Operations Workspace (SOW); I’ve already managed to populate the other fields, but the problem is how to make it mandatory – there isn’t a ‘Required’ checkbox when configuring the drop-down component.

 

How can I make it mandatory?

@ayrtonmaia8 ,
Use the Select component instead of dropdown component, it will work same like drop down component and it has Required Checkbox to make it mandatory.
