# xarray.DataTree.identical

#### DataTree.identical(other)[[source]](https://github.com/pydata/xarray/blob/main/xarray/core/datatree.py#L1586-L1616)

Check whether two DataTrees are identical.

Like equals, but also checks attributes on all datasets, variables and
coordinates, and requires that any inherited coordinates at the tree
root are also inherited on the other tree.

* **Parameters:**
  **other** ([`DataTree`](xarray.DataTree.html.md#xarray.DataTree)) – The other tree object to compare to.
