# FSItem.GetAttributesRequest

A request to get attributes from an item.

```
class GetAttributesRequest
```

## Overview

Methods that retrieve attributes use this type and inspect the [`wantedAttributes`](/documentation/FSKit/FSItem/GetAttributesRequest/wantedAttributes) property to determine which attributes to provide. FSKit calls the [`isAttributeWanted(_:)`](/documentation/FSKit/FSItem/GetAttributesRequest/isAttributeWanted(_:)) method to determine whether the request requires a given attribute.
