# GKAccessPoint

An object that allows players to view and manage their Game Center information from within your game.

```
class GKAccessPoint
```

## Overview

The access point displays a control in a corner of your game that opens a Game Center dashboard when the player taps or clicks it.

Use the [`shared`](/documentation/GameKit/GKAccessPoint/shared) property to get the shared access point object. GameKit attaches the access point to the window you specify in the [`parentWindow`](/documentation/GameKit/GKAccessPoint/parentWindow) property, in the corner you specify using the [`location`](/documentation/GameKit/GKAccessPoint/location-swift.property) property. If you don’t specify a parent window, GameKit infers an appropriate location. For the location of the access point on visionOS, see [Configure the access point on visionOS](/documentation/GameKit/adding-an-access-point-to-your-game#Configure-the-access-point-on-visionOS).

To display highlights, set the [`showHighlights`](/documentation/GameKit/GKAccessPoint/showHighlights) property to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true>. Then set [`isActive`](/documentation/GameKit/GKAccessPoint/isActive) to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> to display the access point control.
