# appendInterpolation(_:align:privacy:attributes:)

Appends an interpolated string with the specified attributes.

## Declaration

```swift
mutating func appendInterpolation(_ argumentString: @autoclosure @escaping () -> String, align: OSLogStringAlignment = .none, privacy: OSLogPrivacy = .auto, attributes: String)
```

## Parameters

- `argumentString`: The interpolated string. The system automatically wraps this value in a closure.
- `align`: The alignment and minimum number of columns to use when the system renders the value in a log message. For more information, see doc://com.apple.os/documentation/os/OSLogStringAlignment. The default value is doc://com.apple.os/documentation/os/OSLogStringAlignment/none.
- `privacy`: The privacy level of the value, which the system applies when it renders the value in a log message. For more information, see doc://com.apple.os/documentation/os/OSLogPrivacy. The default value is doc://com.apple.os/documentation/os/OSLogPrivacy/auto.
- `attributes`: Additional information about the value. Tools that process log messages interpret these attributes, which you typically provide as key-value pairs. For example, Instruments processes any e_ngineering types_ you embed in this value. For more information, see https://help.apple.com/instruments/developer/mac/current/#/devcd5016d31.

## Discussion

Discussion important: You don’t call this method directly. Instead, the framework calls it automatically when you append an interpolated string to a log message.
