How to make a UI element draggable ony on Y axis in Unity?

So, I am making an android app about some locations in my city. In my UI I have background, title, description and a selector tab, that should be dragged out and dragged back down whenever user wants it to. Here is an example: https://i.sstatic.net/FfgK8.jpg

The problem is - I don't really know how to make an event that checks when the object is being dragged in +Y or -Y axis and dragg's it to the fingers position. Any suggestions?

You can add event trigger to UI panel 1. UI panel, add component -> Event -> Event Trigger 2. Add new event type Drag and add the function on it

public void onDragPanel()
{
    if (!_isDrag)
    {
        _isDrag = true;


        if (Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") > 0 )
           //Move up

        else if (Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y") < 0 )
           //Move down

    }

}

and for the up/down movement, you can use animation with two animation states or you can use UITWEEN from asset store. https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/animation/ui-tween-38583

Let me know if you have any further queries.

Good luck! enter image description here
