## Properties

<a id="member-action">

### `action: DifferItemAction`

Further specifies what kind of action led to generating this change.

The action is set in relation to the document state before any change. It means that, for example, if an element was renamed and then removed (during the same [batch](module_engine_model_batch-Batch.md)), the action will be set to `'remove'`, because when compared to the document state before changes, the element was removed, and it does not matter that it was also renamed at one point.

[See source](https://github.com/ckeditor/ckeditor5/blob/master/packages/ckeditor5-engine/src/model/differ.ts#L1705)

<a id="member-attributes">

### `attributes: Map<string, unknown>`

Map of attributes that were set on the item while it was removed.
