# removedIndexes

The indexes from which objects have been removed from the fetch result.

```
var removedIndexes: IndexSet? { get }
```

## Discussion

Use this index set to remove elements from a collection view or similar user interface that displays the contents of the fetch result. These indexes are relative to the original fetch result (the [`fetchResultBeforeChanges`](/documentation/Photos/PHFetchResultChangeDetails/fetchResultBeforeChanges) property); when updating your app’s interface, apply removals before insertions, changes, and moves.

If the [`hasIncrementalChanges`](/documentation/Photos/PHFetchResultChangeDetails/hasIncrementalChanges) property’s value is `false`, this property’s value is `nil`.
