# ubiquitousItemIsDownloadingKey

The key for a Boolean value that indicates whether the system is downloading the item from iCloud.

```
static let ubiquitousItemIsDownloadingKey: URLResourceKey
```

## Discussion

The system returns the read-only value as a Boolean [`NSNumber`](/documentation/Foundation/NSNumber). The value is `true` if the system is downloading this item from iCloud; otherwise, `false`.
