# Get style property

## **`style.getProperty(prop, options?)`**

Retrieve the value of a specific css property in a Style object.

### Syntax

```typescript
style.getProperty(
  prop: {{STYLE_PROPERTY}},
  options?: {
    breakpoint?: {{BREAKPOINT_ID}},
    pseudo?: {{PSEUDO_STATE_KEY}},
    variantId?: {{VARIANT_ID}}
  }
): Promise<null | {{PROPERTY_MAP}}>
```

### Parameters

* **`prop`**: *StyleProperty* - The property to get. See the [Style Properties](/designer/reference/style-properties) reference for a list of supported properties.
* **`options`**: *StyleOptions* - An object that filters properties by breakpoint, pseudo-state, and/or variant. (Optional)

  * **`breakpoint`**: *BreakpointId* - Identifies the responsive breakpoint to get styles for.
    ```typescript
    type BreakpointId = "xxl" | "xl" | "large" | "main" | "medium" | "small" | "tiny"
    ```

  * **`pseudo`**: *PseudoStateKey* - Specifies a CSS pseudo-class to get styles for.
    ```typescript
    type PseudoStateKey = "noPseudo" | "nth-child(odd)" | "nth-child(even)" |
      "first-child" | "last-child" | "hover" | "active" |
      "visited" | "focus" | "focus-visible" | "focus-within" |
      "placeholder" | "empty" | "before" | "after"
    ```

  * **`variantId`**: *string* - The ID of the variant to target. `'base'` is not a valid value. (Optional)

### Returns

**Promise\<*PropertyMap\[p]* | *Variable* | `null`>**

Returns a Promise that resolves to:

* *PropertyMap\[p]* - The value of the provided style property, if one exists.
* A [Variable](/designer/reference/variables-overview) representing the value of the provided style property, if a variable is used as the value of the provided style property.
* `null` - If value doesn't exist for the provided style property, this method will return `null`.

### Example

```typescript
// Get Selected Element
const selectedElement = await webflow.getSelectedElement()

// Get Element Styles
if (selectedElement?.styles) {

    const styles = await selectedElement.getStyles()
    const selectedPropertyList = await Promise.all(styles.map(async style => {

      const styleName = await style.getName()
      const property = await style.getProperty(`box-shadow`)
      console.log(`Style Name: ${styleName}, box-shadow: ${property}`)

    }))

  }
```
