# init(_:including:)

Creates an attribute container from a dictionary and an attribute scope that a key path identifies.

## Declaration

```swift
init<S>(_ dictionary: [NSAttributedString.Key : Any], including scope: KeyPath<AttributeScopes, S.Type>) throws where S : AttributeScope
```

## Parameters

- `dictionary`: A dictionary of attribute keys and their values.
- `scope`: A key path that identifies the attribute scope of the dictionary keys. This can be a nested scope that contains several scopes.

## Discussion

Discussion This initializer only collects attributes from dictionary that exist in the provided scope. The resulting attribute container omits any keys in dictionary that don’t exist in scope.
