# SecTrustResultType

Trust evaluation result codes.

```
enum SecTrustResultType
```

## Overview

You get one of these constants when you call the [`SecTrustGetTrustResult(_:_:)`](/documentation/Security/SecTrustGetTrustResult(_:_:)) method after evaluating a trust instance with either the [`SecTrustEvaluateWithError(_:_:)`](/documentation/Security/SecTrustEvaluateWithError(_:_:)) method or the [`SecTrustEvaluateAsyncWithError(_:_:_:)`](/documentation/Security/SecTrustEvaluateAsyncWithError(_:_:_:)) method. If evaluation fails and [`SecTrustGetTrustResult(_:_:)`](/documentation/Security/SecTrustGetTrustResult(_:_:)) reports [`SecTrustResultType.recoverableTrustFailure`](/documentation/Security/SecTrustResultType/recoverableTrustFailure), you might be able to change parameters like the evaluation date, and reevaluate to obtain a passing result, as described in [Configuring a Trust](/documentation/Security/configuring-a-trust).

See an individual constant below for more information about how to handle that result type in your app.
