# HIDDeviceTransport

Common transport types that transmit data to or from a HID device.

```
enum HIDDeviceTransport
```

## Overview

If a device declares an uncommon transport, the [`HIDDeviceTransport.unknown(_:)`](/documentation/CoreHID/HIDDeviceTransport/unknown(_:)) case is used with the
associated raw string value.
