# performDrop(info:)

Tells the delegate it can request the item provider data from the given
information.

```
@MainActor @preconcurrency func performDrop(info: DropInfo) -> Bool
```

## Return Value

A Boolean that is `true` if the drop was successful, `false`
otherwise.

## Discussion

Incorporate the received data into your app’s data model as appropriate.

Make sure to start loading the contents of `NSItemProvider` instances from
[`DropInfo`](/documentation/SwiftUI/DropInfo) within the scope of this method. Do not perform loading asynchronously
on a different actor. Loading the contents may finish later, but it must start here.
For security reasons, the drop receiver can access the dropped payload only before
this method returns.
