    if let livePhoto = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: PHLivePhoto.self) {

      let photo: Photo = .init(id: pickerItem.itemIdentifier, item: livePhoto)

      return photo

    } else if let url = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: URL.self) {

      let photo: Photo = .init(id: pickerItem.itemIdentifier, item: url)

      return photo

    } else if let data = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: Data.self) {

      let photo: Photo = .init(id: pickerItem.itemIdentifier, item: data)

You should define you own model object conforming to the Transferable protocol. For example:

struct Movie: Transferable {
    let url: URL
    static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation {
        FileRepresentation(contentType: .movie) { movie in
            SentTransferredFile($0.url)
        } importing: { received in
            let copy: URL = URL(fileURLWithPath: "<#...#>")
            try FileManager.default.copyItem(at: received.file, to: copy)
            return Self.init(url: copy)
        }
    }
}

Then you can write:

let movie = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: Movie.self)

FileRepresentation.importing's 'receivedData' is already deleted. when I use.

import CoreTransferable

struct Movie: Transferable {

  let url: URL

  static var transferRepresentation: some TransferRepresentation {
    FileRepresentation(contentType: .movie) { movie in
      SentTransferredFile(movie.url)
    } importing: { receivedData in
      let fileName = receivedData.file.lastPathComponent

      let copy: URL =  FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory.appendingPathComponent(fileName)

      try FileManager.default.copyItem(at: receivedData.file, to: copy)

      return .init(url: copy)
    }
  }
}
