## Discussion

Discussion When you send a SELECT command with a p1Parameter value of 0x04, your app must support one of the applications listed in the ISO7816 application identifiers for NFC Tag Reader Session property list key. Otherwise, the resultHandler receives an NFCReaderError.Code.readerErrorSecurityViolation error. The session calls resultHandler on the dispatch queue that you provided when creating the NFCTagReaderSession object.
