## FAQ

### Why I can not access context, Pinia, ConfigProvider `locale/prefixCls/theme` in message?

antdv will dynamic create Vue instance by `Vue.render` when call message methods. Whose context is different with origin code located context.

When you need context info (like ConfigProvider context), you can use `message.useMessage` to get `api` instance and `contextHolder` node. And put it in your children:

```html
<template>
  <contextHolder />
  <!-- <component :is='contextHolder'/> -->
</template>
<script setup>
  import { message } from 'ant-design-vue';
  const [messageApi, contextHolder] = message.useMessage();
  messageApi.open({
    // ...
  });
</script>
```

**Note:** You must insert `contextHolder` into your children with hooks. You can use origin method if you do not need context connection.

> [App Package Component](/components/app) can be used to simplify the problem of `useMessage` and other methods that need to manually implant contextHolder.
