React Native WebView API Reference

This document lays out the current public properties and methods for the React Native WebView.

Security Warning: Currently, onMessage and postMessage do not allow specifying an origin. This can lead to cross-site scripting attacks if an unexpected document is loaded within a WebView instance. Please refer to the MDN documentation for Window.postMessage() for more details on the security implications of this.

Reference

Props

source

Loads static HTML or a URI (with optional headers) in the WebView. Note that static HTML will require setting originWhitelist to ["*"].

The object passed to source can have either of the following shapes:

Load uri

  • uri (string) - The URI to load in the WebView. Can be a local or remote file.
  • method (string) - The HTTP Method to use. Defaults to GET if not specified. On Android, the only supported methods are GET and POST.
  • headers (object) - Additional HTTP headers to send with the request. On Android, this can only be used with GET requests.
  • body (string) - The HTTP body to send with the request. This must be a valid UTF-8 string, and will be sent exactly as specified, with no additional encoding (e.g. URL-escaping or base64) applied. On Android, this can only be used with POST requests.

Static HTML

Note that using static HTML requires the WebView property originWhiteList to ['*'].

  • html (string) - A static HTML page to display in the WebView.
  • baseUrl (string) - The base URL to be used for any relative links in the HTML.
