## Declaration

```swift
convenience init(title: String?, style: UIAlertAction.Style, handler: ((UIAlertAction) -> Void)? = nil)

## Parameters

- `style`: Additional styling information to apply to the button. Use the style information to convey the type of action that is performed by the button. For a list of possible values, see the constants in doc://com.apple.uikit/documentation/UIKit/UIAlertAction/Style-swift.enum.
