# getPendingTaskRequests(completionHandler:)

Request a list of unexecuted scheduled task requests.

```
func getPendingTaskRequests(completionHandler: @escaping @Sendable ([BGTaskRequest]) -> Void)
```

## Parameters

`completionHandler`

The completion handler called with the pending tasks. The handler may execute on a background thread.

    The handler takes a single parameter     `tasksRequests`    , an array of     `BGTaskRequest`     objects. The array is empty if there are no scheduled tasks.

    The objects passed in the array are copies of the existing requests. Changing the attributes of a request has no effect. To change the attributes submit a new task request using [`submit(_:)`](/documentation/BackgroundTasks/BGTaskScheduler/submit(_:))    .

## Discussion

> Concurrency note: You can call this method from synchronous code using a completion handler, as shown on this page, or you can call it as an asynchronous method that has the following declaration:
> 
> ```swift
> func pendingTaskRequests() async -> [BGTaskRequest]
> ```
> 
> For information about concurrency and asynchronous code in Swift, see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/calling-objective-c-apis-asynchronously>.
