# thumbnailIfAvailable

The item’s thumbnail if it is readily available.

## Declaration

```swift
var thumbnailIfAvailable: CGImage? { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion If a thumbnail is not readily available, accessing this property requests it from the device. When the thumbnail is received, cameraDevice(_:didReceiveThumbnailFor:) is called on the the device’s delegate. Execution of the delegate callback occurs on the main thread.
