Replace the entire header with your own component:

<div className="flex items-center gap-2">
<BotIcon className="w-5 h-5" />
<span className="font-semibold">My AI Assistant</span>
</div>
<button onClick={() => /* close popup */}>
<XIcon className="w-5 h-5" />
</button>
</div>
);
}
<CopilotPopup header={CustomHeader} />The popup includes a floating toggle button to open and close it. Customize it through the toggleButton prop:
<CopilotPopup
toggleButton={{
className: "bg-purple-500 hover:bg-purple-600",
openIcon: "text-white",
closeIcon: "text-white",
}}
/>| Sub-Slot | Description |

Replace the toggle button entirely:
function CustomToggleButton() {
return (
<button className="fixed bottom-4 right-4 p-3 bg-blue-500 rounded-full">
<ChatIcon className="w-6 h-6 text-white" />
</button>
);
}
<CopilotPopup toggleButton={CustomToggleButton} />;CopilotPopup uses the same slot system as CopilotChat. Each slot accepts four types of values:
- Tailwind class string - Add or override CSS classes
- Props object - Pass additional props to the default component
- Custom component - Replace the component entirely
- Nested sub-slots - Drill down to customize child components
<CopilotPopup width={500} height={700} />
// Or with CSS units
<CopilotPopup width="30vw" height="80vh" /><CopilotPopup clickOutsideToClose={true} /><CopilotPopup
header={{
className: "bg-gradient-to-r from-blue-500 to-purple-500 text-white",
titleContent: "AI Assistant",
}}
/><CopilotPopup
messageView={{
assistantMessage: {
onThumbsUp: (msg) => console.log("Liked:", msg.id),
onThumbsDown: (msg) => console.log("Disliked:", msg.id),
},
}}
input={{
