# resignCurrent()

Marks this activity object as inactive without invalidating it.

## Declaration

```swift
func resignCurrent()
```

## Discussion

Discussion Calling this method marks the user activity as no longer current, but doesn’t invalidate it entirely. You can call this method when you want to stop advertising the activity for continuation and search indexing only temporarily. You may call becomeCurrent() later to restore this object as the current activity.
