# broadcast

A property that indicates the characteristic can broadcast its value using a characteristic configuration descriptor.

## Declaration

```swift
static var broadcast: CBCharacteristicProperties { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Don’t use this property for local characteristics published with the add(_:) method of the CBPeripheralManager class. You can’t use this property when you initialize a new CBMutableCharacteristic object with the init(type:properties:value:permissions:) method of the CBMutableCharacteristic class.
