CardHeader API

The API documentation of the CardHeader React component. Learn more about the props and the CSS customization points.

Import

import CardHeader from '@material-ui/core/CardHeader';
// or
import { CardHeader } from '@material-ui/core';

You can learn more about the difference by reading this guide.

Component name

The MuiCardHeader name can be used for providing default props or style overrides at the theme level.

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
action	node		The action to display in the card header.
avatar	node		The Avatar for the Card Header.
classes	object		Override or extend the styles applied to the component. See CSS API below for more details.
component	elementType	'div'	The component used for the root node. Either a string to use a HTML element or a component.
disableTypography	bool	false	If true, subheader and title won't be wrapped by a Typography component. This can be useful to render an alternative Typography variant by wrapping the title text, and optional subheader text with the Typography component.
subheader	node		The content of the component.
subheaderTypographyProps	object		These props will be forwarded to the subheader (as long as disableTypography is not true).
title	node		The content of the Card Title.
titleTypographyProps	object		These props will be forwarded to the title (as long as disableTypography is not true).

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (native element).

CSS

Rule name	Global class	Description
root	.MuiCardHeader-root	Styles applied to the root element.
avatar	.MuiCardHeader-avatar	Styles applied to the avatar element.
action	.MuiCardHeader-action	Styles applied to the action element.
content	.MuiCardHeader-content	Styles applied to the content wrapper element.
title	.MuiCardHeader-title	Styles applied to the title Typography element.

You can override the style of the component thanks to one of these customization points:

• With a rule name of the classes object prop.
• With a global class name.
• With a theme and an overrides property.

If that's not sufficient, you can check the implementation of the component for more detail.
