Material React Table Cell Instance API Reference

Cell Instance APIs

Every cell provides a cell object that can be used in many props or column definitions that let's you have access to a cell's information and methods.

You can access and use a cell object in quite a few places, but here are some of the most common:

const columns = [
  {
    accessorKey: 'username',
    header: 'Username',
    //you can access a cell in many callback column definition options like this
    muiTableBodyCellProps: ({ cell }) => ({
      onClick: () => {
        console.log(cell.getValue(), cell.id);
      },
    }),
    //or in the component override callbacks like this
    Cell: ({ cell }) => {
      return <div>{cell.getValue()}</div>;
    },
  },
];

return (
  <MaterialTable
    columns={columns}
    data={data}
    //or in callback props like this
    muiTableBodyCellEditTextFieldProps={({ cell }) => ({
      disabled: cell.getValue() === 'admin',
    })}
  />
);

NOTE: These are NOT props or column options for Material React Table. These are just static methods on a cell instance that you can use.
