# save(completion:)

Saves any changes you’ve made in the data store.

```
func save(completion: (@Sendable ((any Error)?) -> Void)? = nil)
```

## Parameters

`completion`

A closure the method calls on completion of the save operation with an optional error value that indicates the reason for failure, if any.

## Discussion

> Important:
> 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 save() async throws
> ```
> 
> For information about concurrency and asynchronous code in Swift, see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/calling-objective-c-apis-asynchronously>.

> Important:
> ClassKit calls your completion handler on an arbitrary thread. If you need to do work on a particular thread from inside the handler, dispatch that work to the appropriate queue.
