# SecTransformMetaAttributeType.deferred

The attribute defers notifications.

```
case deferred
```

## Discussion

Determines if the AttributeSetNotification notification or the ProcessData blocks are deferred until [`SecTransformExecute(_:_:)`](/documentation/Security/SecTransformExecute(_:_:)) is called. This metadata value has a default value of <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> for the input attribute but is <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false> for all other attributes.
