Hi Megha,

2.2.1 applies to both cases you mention. Toasts are a fail of SC 2.2.1 unless one of the list of exceptions is true.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [WebAIM] Is 2.2.1 applicable on toasts

Hello team,

In an application there are toast messages whenever any form is submitted
which states success message of submission or thank you note type. these
toast message banner comes and goes away in few seconds.
Will the requirements mentioned in 2.2.1 timing adjustable be applicable
here? there is no action needed on these toasts.

Also what if such confirmation message is not in toast banner, rather part
of main content. takes some portion of main content and goes away after few
seconds?

Regards,
Megha
