Slots

A slot allows for any type of element or markup to be passed into and rendered within a web component. This creates more flexibility than using a prop which must take a specific type of data.

Content can be slotted into a component by adding it as a top-level child of the component.

Slots can have a name to identify them. These specify which slot the content will be inserted into, and therefore where it will be rendered and how it will be used within the component. The name of the slot to be used can be specified by passing it via a slot attribute on the slotted content.

Name	Description
Slot action	Content is placed to the right of the message.
Slot message	Content is placed to the right of the title.
Slot neutral-icon	A custom neutral icon is placed to the left of the title. This will override the default icon if used.

Events

All components also accept native events supported by the DOM, such as onClick and onKeyDown .

Name	Description	Signature
Web component icDismiss React onIcDismiss	Is emitted when the user dismisses the alert.	void
