## Discussion

> Important:
> You can call this method from synchronous code using a completion handler, as shown on this page, or you can call it as an asynchronous method that has the following declaration:
> 
> ```swift
> func encodingStatus(for message: MEMessage, composeContext: MEComposeContext) async -> MEOutgoingMessageEncodingStatus
> ```
> 
> For information about concurrency and asynchronous code in Swift, see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/calling-objective-c-apis-asynchronously>.
