# supportsStringSearchRequest

A Boolean value that indicates whether the provider supports search.

## Declaration

```swift
var supportsStringSearchRequest: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion If this value is true, the framework uses the extension’s NSFileProviderSearching implementation to support search. The property defaults to false (Swift) or NO (Objective-C).
