# UIAbilityContext **UIAbilityContext**, inherited from [Context](js-apis-inner-application-context.md), provides the context environment for [UIAbility](js-apis-app-ability-uiAbility.md). **UIAbilityContext** provides UIAbility-related configuration and APIs for operating UIAbilities and ServiceExtensionAbilities. For example, you can use the APIs to start a UIAbility, terminate a UIAbility to which the UIAbilityContext belongs, and start, terminate, connect to, or disconnect from a ServiceExtensionAbility. > **NOTE** > > - The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 9. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version. > - The APIs of this module can be used only in the stage model. ## Modules to Import ```ts import common from '@ohos.app.ability.common'; ``` ## Attributes **System capability**: SystemCapability.Ability.AbilityRuntime.Core | Name| Type| Readable| Writable| Description| | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | | abilityInfo | [AbilityInfo](js-apis-bundleManager-abilityInfo.md) | Yes| No| UIAbility information.| | currentHapModuleInfo | [HapModuleInfo](js-apis-bundleManager-hapModuleInfo.md) | Yes| No| HAP information.| | config | [Configuration](js-apis-app-ability-configuration.md) | Yes| No| UIAbility configuration, such as the language and color mode.| > **NOTE** > > In the sample code provided in this topic, **this.context** is used to obtain **UIAbilityContext**, where **this** indicates a UIAbility instance inherited from **UIAbility**.
