# SecKeychainAttributeInfoForItemID(_:_:_:)

Obtains tags for all possible attributes of a given item class.

## Declaration

```swift
func SecKeychainAttributeInfoForItemID(_ keychain: SecKeychain?, _ itemID: UInt32, _ info: UnsafeMutablePointer<UnsafeMutablePointer<SecKeychainAttributeInfo>?>) -> OSStatus
```

## Parameters

- `keychain`: A keychain object.
- `itemID`: The relation identifier of the item tags. An itemID is a CSSM_DB_RECORDTYPE type as defined in cssmtype.h.
- `info`: On return, a pointer to the keychain attribute information. Your application should call the doc://com.apple.security/documentation/Security/SecKeychainFreeAttributeInfo(_:) function to release this structure when done with it.

## Return Value

Return Value A result code. See Security Framework Result Codes.

## Discussion

Discussion This call returns more attributes than are supported by the old style Keychain API and passing them into older calls yields an invalid attribute error. The recommended call to retrieve the attribute values is the SecKeychainItemCopyAttributesAndData(_:_:_:_:_:_:) function. note: This is a CSSM-based API. CSSM is deprecated. For new development, where possible, you should generally use SecItemCopyMatching(_:_:) to obtain the attributes of keychain items instead, because that function is based on Core Foundation types.
