# FSItem.SetAttributesRequest

A request to set attributes on an item.

```
class SetAttributesRequest
```

## Overview

Methods that take attributes use this type to receive attribute values and to indicate which attributes they support.
The various members of the parent type, [`FSItem.Attributes`](/documentation/FSKit/FSItem/Attributes), contain the values of the attributes to set.

Modify the [`consumedAttributes`](/documentation/FSKit/FSItem/SetAttributesRequest/consumedAttributes) property to indicate which attributes your file system successfully used.
FSKit calls the [`wasAttributeConsumed(_:)`](/documentation/FSKit/FSItem/SetAttributesRequest/wasAttributeConsumed(_:)) method to determine whether the file system successfully used a given attribute.
Only set the attributes that your file system supports.
