title: Special Props Warning
layout: single
permalink: warnings/special-props.html

Most props on a JSX element are passed on to the component, however, there are two special props (`ref` and `key`) which are used by React, and are thus not forwarded to the component.
For instance, attempting to access `this.props.key` from a component (eg. the render function) is not defined. If you need to access the same value within the child component, you should pass it as a different prop (ex: `<ListItemWrapper key={result.id} id={result.id} />`). While this may seem redundant, it's important to separate app logic from reconciling hints.
