Status labels

Examples

Status labels are used to highlight key information to users. They can be used to indicate a progress status such as incomplete, in progress etc. or to highlight statistical information on a report or dashboard.

Usage

Default status label

Used to convey a neutral state. If the label doesn't fall clearly into the primary, success, warning or danger category, use the default label. It should also be used for less important information.

Primary status label

Primary label is usually the first-choice label you would use.

Success status label

Used when information has positive outcomes, such as a form successfully submitted, or the progress status is complete.

Warning status label

Used to alert users to potentially hazardous issues, situations or data that require attention.

Danger status label

Used to communicate critical or error states that require immediate attention, or for when information status is considered dangerous or fatal.

Do:

ensure your status labels are accessible by including a clear text description, as colour alone cannot be used to indicate state
display and position the status label(s) appropriately, considering its location within the UI

Avoid:

having too many status labels on one line or on the page as it can result in cognitive overload

Accessibility status

This component hasn't been fully tested for WCAG 2.2 compliance.

Testing

if interactive check keyboard navigation to ensure the status labels are in expected tab order and doesn't cause a keyboard trap
check that buttons that are associated with status labels can be used with return, enter and space bar to activate them
test status labels with screen readers to ensure they are announced as expected

Developer considerations

apply role="status" to the element containing the status label. This informs assistive technologies that the content within this element should be treated as a status message
If there is a live update element to the status labels make sure the appropriate ARIA attribute is used we would recommend using aria-live = "polite" so this will not interfere with more important items on the page
