# ClassifyImageRequest

A request to classify an image.

## Declaration

```swift
struct ClassifyImageRequest
```

## Overview

Overview This type of request produces a collection of ClassificationObservation objects that describe an image. Access the possible classifications through the supportedIdentifiers property. if let imageURL = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "ClassificationImage",                                       withExtension: "jpg") {     do {         let request = ClassifyImageRequest()         let results = try await request.perform(on: imageURL)         for classification in results {             print("Classified \(classification.identifier)")         }     } catch {         print("Encountered an error when performing the request: \(error.localizedDescription)")     } }
