Alert isn't presenting when I use confirmationDialog and alert in a single View.

 struct ConfirmationDialog: View {
    @State private var showingOptions = false
    @State private var showingAlert = false
 
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button("Show Options") {
                showingOptions = true
            }
            .alert("Alert Title", isPresented: $showingAlert, actions: {
                Button {
                    // Do nothing
                } label: {
                    Text("Okay")
                }
            }, message: {
                Text("Alert Message")
            })
            .confirmationDialog("Select option", isPresented: $showingOptions, titleVisibility: .visible) {
                Button("Show Alert") {
                    self.showingAlert = true
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

I'm getting a console log when confirmationDialog is presented for the first time.

Attempting to present an alert while a confirmation dialog is already presented. This is not supported.

I'm using XCode 13 and iOS 15 simulator. I tried even changing the sequence it didn't worked

Is it a bug in XCode 13 or there are any other ways to fix it.

Try this:

     @State private var showingOptions = false
    @State private var showingAlert = false
 
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button("Show Options") {
                showingOptions = true
            }
            .alert(isPresented: $showingAlert) {
                Alert(title: Text("Alert"), message: Text("Message"), dismissButton: .default(Text("OK")))
            }
            .confirmationDialog("Select option", isPresented: $showingOptions, titleVisibility: .visible) {
                Button("Show Alert") {
                    self.showingAlert = true
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Yes @robnotyou it worked. But that API for showing an alert was deprecated.

             .alert(isPresented: $showingAlert) {
                Alert(title: Text("Alert"), message: Text("Message"), dismissButton: .default(Text("OK")))
            }

@Srikanth_Thangavel Did you find any valuable solution to this problem without making use of the deprecated alert API?

	struct ConfirmationDialog: View {
	@State private var showingOptions = false
	@State private var showingAlert = false

	var body: some View {
	VStack {
	Button("Show Options") {
	showingOptions = true
	}
	.alert("Alert Title", isPresented: $showingAlert, actions: {
	Button {
	// Do nothing
	} label: {
	Text("Okay")
	}
	}, message: {
	Text("Alert Message")
	})
	.confirmationDialog("Select option", isPresented: $showingOptions, titleVisibility: .visible) {
	Button("Show Alert") {
	self.showingAlert = true
	}
	}
	}
	}
	}

	.alert(isPresented: $showingAlert) {
	Alert(title: Text("Alert"), message: Text("Message"), dismissButton: .default(Text("OK")))
	}
