# Pasteboard Data Type Representations

Pasteboard-item representation types, as for a given object value.

## Topics

### Constants

[`UIPasteboardTypeListString`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/typeListString)

An array of pasteboard-item representation types for string-type uniform type identifiers (UTIs), including the `kUTTypeUTF8PlainText` and `kUTTypeText` types. Related [`UIPasteboard`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard) properties are [`string`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/string) and [`strings`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/strings).

[`UIPasteboardTypeListURL`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/typeListURL)

An array of pasteboard-item representation types for URL-type uniform type identifiers (UTIs), including `kUTTypeURL`. Related [`UIPasteboard`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard) properties are [`url`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/url) and [`urls`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/urls).

[`UIPasteboardTypeListImage`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/typeListImage)

An array of pasteboard-item representation types for image-type uniform type identifiers (UTIs), including `kUTTypePNG` and `kUTTypeJPEG`. Related [`UIPasteboard`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard) properties are [`image`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/image) and [`images`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/images).

[`UIPasteboardTypeListColor`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/typeListColor)

An array of pasteboard-item representation types for colors. Related [`UIPasteboard`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard) properties are [`color`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/color) and [`colors`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/colors).

[`UIPasteboardTypeAutomatic`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPasteboard/typeAutomatic)

An array of pasteboard-item representation types with automatically-determined uniform type identifiers (UTIs).
