# UICellConfigurationState

A structure that encapsulates a cell’s state.

## Declaration

```swift
struct UICellConfigurationState
```

## Overview

Overview A cell configuration state encompasses a trait collection along with all of the common states that affect a cell’s appearance — view states like selected, focused, or disabled, and cell states like editing or swiped. A cell configuration state encapsulates the inputs that configure a cell for any possible state or combination of states. You use a cell configuration state with background and content configurations to obtain the default appearance for a specific state. Typically, you don’t create a configuration state yourself. To obtain a configuration state, override the updateConfiguration(using:) method in your cell subclass and use the state parameter. Outside of this method, you can get a cell’s configuration state by using its configurationState property. You can create your own custom states to add to a cell configuration state by defining a custom state key using UIConfigurationStateCustomKey.
