The coupled transport of ions and electrons is of great potential for next‐generation sensors, energy storage and conversion devices, optoelectronics, etc. Coordination polymers (CPs) intrinsically have both transport pathways for electrons and ions, however, the practical conductivities are usually low. In recent years, significant advances have been made in electronic or ionic conductive coordination polymers, which also results in progress in mixed ionic‐electronic conductive coordination polymers. Here we start from electronic and ionic conductive CPs to mixed ionic‐electronic conductive CPs. Recent advances in the design of mixed ionic‐electronic conductive CPs are summarized. In addition, devices based on mixed conduction are selected.
