# activeFindSession

The object that manages the state, presentation, and behavior of an active search.

```
var activeFindSession: UIFindSession? { get }
```

## Discussion

This property returns the session object managing the details of the search. When no seach is active, [`isFindNavigatorVisible`](/documentation/UIKit/UIFindInteraction/isFindNavigatorVisible) is `false`, this returns `nil`.
