# ITLibPlaylist

This class describes a playlist in the iTunes library.

## Declaration

```swift
class ITLibPlaylist
```

## Overview

Overview A playlist is a collection of media items (tracks). The user creates and organizes playlists manually, or iTunes automatically generates them. Playlists are media entities. Each contains a unique identifier and a set of properties. Playlists can form a hierarchical structure. In those cases, the parentID property of ITLibPlaylist returns the persistent ID of the parent playlist.
