| Type                                                                                                 | Description                                                                                          |

| [IPropertyDatabaseView](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityeditor/search/ipropertydatabaseview.md) | The [PropertyDatabase](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityeditor/search/propertydatabase.md) view. |

### Remarks

The view handles all the internal file operations and concurrent accesses. All operations on the [PropertyDatabase](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityeditor/search/propertydatabase.md) create a view, so for performance reasons you should get a view with [PropertyDatabase.GetView](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityeditor/search/propertydatabase/getview.md) and do all your operations with it.
