Migrate to Polaris

Version 2025-07 is the last API version to support React-based UI components. Later versions use web components, native UI elements with built-in accessibility, better performance, and consistent styling with Shopify's design system. Check out the migration guide to upgrade your extension.

Pressable

Pressable is a generic interactive component. It shares the same styling properties as View but also adds pressable behavior, meaning that you can execute some logic in response to buyer interaction. Use this component for creating interactive elements without the default styling that comes with Button and Link.

Pressable is a generic interactive component. It shares the same styling properties as View but also adds pressable behavior, meaning that you can execute some logic in response to user interaction. Use this component for creating interactive elements without the default styling that comes with Button and Link.

Anchor to accessibilityLabel
accessibilityLabel
string

A label that describes the purpose or contents of the element. When set, it will be announced to buyers using assistive technologies and will provide them with more context.

Anchor to accessibilityRole
accessibilityRole
Default: 'button'

The role of the button that will be rendered.

button: renders a regular button.

submit: renders a button that submits a form.

Anchor to activateAction
activateAction
'auto' | 'copy'
Default: 'auto' - a default action for the target component.

Sets the action the activateTarget should take when this pressable is activated.

Supported actions by component:

ComponentSupported ActionsDefault ('auto')
ClipboardItem'copy''copy'
Anchor to activateTarget
activateTarget
string

The ID of the component to control when this component is activated. Pair with the activateAction property to specify what action to perform on the target component.

Anchor to background
background
<>
Default: 'transparent'

The background color of the element, set using a design-system keyword.

  • transparent: No background; the parent's background shows through.
  • base: The standard surface background color.
  • subdued: A muted background for de-emphasized or secondary content.
Anchor to blockAlignment
blockAlignment
< Extract<, 'start' | 'center' | 'end'> >

Position children along the cross axis

Anchor to border
border
<<>>

The border style of the element.

To shorten the code, it is possible to specify all the border style properties in one property.

For example:

  • base means blockStart, inlineEnd, blockEnd and inlineStart border styles are base

  • ['base', 'none'] means blockStart and blockEnd border styles are base, inlineStart and inlineEnd border styles are none

  • ['base', 'none', 'dotted', 'base'] means blockStart border style is base, inlineEnd border style is none, blockEnd border style is dotted and blockStart border style is base

Anchor to borderWidth
borderWidth
< <> >

The border width of the element.

To shorten the code, it is possible to specify all the border width properties in one property.

For example:

  • base means blockStart, inlineEnd, blockEnd and inlineStart border widths are base

  • ['base', 'medium'] means blockStart and blockEnd border widths are base, inlineStart and inlineEnd border widths are medium

  • ['base', 'medium', 'medium', 'base'] means blockStart border width is base, inlineEnd border width is medium, blockEnd border width is medium and blockStart border width is base

Anchor to cornerRadius
cornerRadius
< <> >

The corner radius of the element.

Provide a single value to apply the same corner radius to all four corners, two values to apply different corner radii to opposing corners, or four values to apply different corner radii to each individual corner.

For example:

  • base means all 4 corner radii are base

  • ['base', 'none'] means the StartStart and EndEnd corner radii are base, StartEnd and EndStart corner radii are none. When the context’s language direction is left to right, StartStart and EndEnd corners are the top left and bottom right corners while StartEnd and EndStart corners are the top right and bottom left corners.

  • ['base', 'none', 'small', 'base'] means StartStart corner radius is base, StartEnd corner radius is none, EndEnd corner radius is small and EndStart corner radius is base

A borderRadius alias is available for this property. When both are specified, cornerRadius takes precedence.

Anchor to disabled
disabled
boolean

Whether the element is disabled, preventing it from being activated or receiving focus

Anchor to display
display
<>
Default: 'auto'

Changes the display of the component.

inline the component starts on the same line as preceding inline content and allows subsequent content to continue on the same line.

block the component starts on its own new line and fills its parent.

auto resets the component to its initial value. The actual value depends on the component and context.

none hides the component and removes it from the accessibility tree, making it invisible to screen readers.

string

A unique identifier for the component.

Anchor to inlineAlignment
inlineAlignment
<>

Position children along the main axis

Anchor to loading
loading
boolean

Whether the element is in a loading state. Unlike Button, no loading indicator is rendered.

Anchor to maxBlockSize
maxBlockSize
< number | `${number}%` | 'fill' >

The maximum block size (maximum height in horizontal writing modes). The element won't grow taller than this value even if its content is longer.

  • number: The size in pixels.
  • `${number}%`: The size as a percentage of the parent container's block size.
  • 'fill': Takes all the available space.

Learn more about the max-block-size property.

Anchor to maxInlineSize
maxInlineSize
< number | `${number}%` | 'fill' >

The maximum inline size (maximum width in horizontal writing modes). The element won't grow wider than this value.

  • number: The size in pixels.
  • `${number}%`: The size as a percentage of the parent container's inline size.
  • 'fill': Takes all the available space.

Learn more about the max-inline-size property.

Anchor to minBlockSize
minBlockSize
< number | `${number}%` | 'fill' >

The minimum block size (minimum height in horizontal writing modes). The element won't shrink smaller than this value even if its content is shorter.

  • number: The size in pixels.
  • `${number}%`: The size as a percentage of the parent container's block size.
  • 'fill': Takes all the available space.

Learn more about the min-block-size property.

Anchor to minInlineSize
minInlineSize
< number | `${number}%` | 'fill' >

The minimum inline size (minimum width in horizontal writing modes). The element won't shrink narrower than this value.

  • number: The size in pixels.
  • `${number}%`: The size as a percentage of the parent container's inline size.
  • 'fill': Takes all the available space.

Learn more about the min-inline-size property.

Anchor to onBlur
onBlur
() => void

A callback fired when the element loses focus.

Anchor to onFocus
onFocus
() => void

A callback fired when the element receives focus.

Anchor to onPointerDown
onPointerDown
() => void

A callback fired when a pointing device button is pressed while the pointer is inside the element.

Anchor to onPointerEnter
onPointerEnter
() => void

A callback fired when the pointing device enters the element.

Anchor to onPointerLeave
onPointerLeave
() => void

A callback fired when the pointing device leaves the element.

Anchor to onPointerUp
onPointerUp

A callback fired when a pointing device button is released while the pointer is inside the element.

Anchor to onPress
onPress
() => void

A callback fired when the element is activated by the user.

Anchor to opacity
opacity

Sets the opacity of the View. The opacity will be applied to the background as well as all the children of the View. Use carefully as this could decrease the contrast ratio between the background and foreground elements, resulting in unreadable and inaccessible text.

Anchor to overflow
overflow
'hidden' | 'visible'
Default: 'visible'

Sets the overflow behavior of the element.

hidden: clips the content when it is larger than the element’s container. The element will not be scrollable and the users will not be able to access the clipped content by dragging or using a scroll wheel.

visible: the content that extends beyond the element’s container is visible.

Anchor to overlay
overlay
RemoteFragment

An overlay component to render when the user interacts with the component.

Anchor to padding
padding
<<>>

The padding on all edges of the element, using a shorthand syntax. You can specify one, two, or four values following the CSS shorthand convention.

  • T: A single value applied uniformly to all edges.
  • [T, T]: The first value applies to block-start and block-end, the second to inline-start and inline-end.
  • [T, T, T, T]: Values apply to block-start, inline-end, block-end, and inline-start respectively.
string

The URL to navigate to when the element is activated. When set, the component renders as an anchor element.

Anchor to toggles
toggles
string

The component's identifier whose visibility will be toggled when this component is actioned.

Anchor to borderRadius
borderRadius
< <> >
Deprecated

Use cornerRadius instead.

The corner radius of the element. Accepts a single value for all corners or a shorthand tuple for per-corner control.
