# SecTaskCopyValueForEntitlement(_:_:_:) Returns the value of a single entitlement for the represented task. ``` func SecTaskCopyValueForEntitlement(_ task: SecTask, _ entitlement: CFString, _ error: UnsafeMutablePointer?>?) -> CFTypeRef? ``` ## Parameters `task` The task whose entitlement you want. `entitlement` The name of the entitlement to be fetched. `error` A pointer that the function uses to provide an error object with details if an error occurs. The caller becomes responsible for the object’s memory. Pass `NULL` to ignore the error. ## Return Value The value of the specified entitlement for the process or `NULL` if the entitlement value could not be retrieved. The type of the returned value depends on the entitlement specified. In Objective-C, call the function to free this object’s memory when you are done with it. ## Discussion An empty return value may indicate an error, or it may indicate that the entitlement is simply not present. In the latter case, no error is returned. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
