Lightning Accordian Tag in Lightning Experience
Generally to create an accordian slider we require a few lines of html elements, css and some script. Wouldn’t it be wonderfull, if we could create the slider by just using the tags. In Lightning Experience we can create it by just using tag. Yes, you heard it right, with the help of lightning:accordion and lightning:accordionSection. Let’s know more about the tags.
Lightning Accordian Tag
Both the tags will work in API version 41.0 or later. If you have the earlier version of the components, you just have to update metadata file of the component. First of all we will discuss about the tags and their attributes.
lightning:accordion
1) activeSectionName: You can write the name of the tab, the tab will be open by default.
2) class: Adds extra css to the element.
3) title: Title of the icon appears when you hover mouse over it.
lightning:accordionSection
1) actions: Through this attribute you can enable custom menu implementation.
2) class: Adds extra css to the element.
3) title: Title of the icon appears when you hover mouse over it.
4) label: It is displayed as the title of the action.
5) name: The name is unique for each accordian section.
