Not able to parse api response - ios

Question

I have an api response that looks like so…I get the response from the api properly..
{
"status": "success",
"data": {
"meta": {
"url": "htt..://www.abc.com",
"title": “ASD - Log In or Sign Up",
"description": "Create an account or log in….”,
"display_url": "htt..://www.abc.com/",
"video_url": "",
"image": "htt..://www.asd.com/images/asds_325x325.png",
"img_wxh": "325x325"
}
}
}
The model class with which I parse this data is given like so..
struct MetaData: Codable {
let status: String?
let data: DataClass?
}
struct DataClass: Codable {
let meta: Meta
}
struct Meta: Codable {
let url: String
let title, description: String
let displayURL: String
let videoURL: String
let image: String
let imgWxh: String
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
case url = "url"
case title = "title"
case description = "description"
case displayURL = "display_url"
case videoURL = "video_url"
case image = "image"
case imgWxh = "img_wxh"
}
}
The api call that is being made is gives as below...
WebServiceClient.shared.getMeta(withParameters: parameters) { [weak self] (isSuccess, result) in
guard let `self` = self else { return }
if isSuccess, result != nil {
if let jsonData = try? JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: result as Any, options: []) {
do {
let metaData = try JSONDecoder().decode(MetaData.self, from: jsonData)
self.metaDataImageView.sd_setImage(with: URL(string: metaData.data?.meta.image ?? ""), completed: nil)
self.urlLabel.text = metaData.data?.meta.url
self.titleLabel.text = metaData.data?.meta.title
self.urlDescriptionLabel.text = metaData.data?.meta.description
} catch {
print("error \(error)")
}
}
}
But I get all data as nil...what could be the reason..?
I get nothing in metaData...

Here is the code I tried to parse your data
struct MetaData: Codable {
let status: String?
let data: DataClass?
}
struct DataClass: Codable {
let meta: Meta
}
struct Meta: Codable {
let url: String
let title, description: String
let displayURL: String
let videoURL: String
let image: String
let imgWxh: String
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
case url = "url"
case title = "title"
case description = "description"
case displayURL = "display_url"
case videoURL = "video_url"
case image = "image"
case imgWxh = "img_wxh"
}
}
let jsonString = """
{
"status": "success",
"data": {
"meta": {
"url": "htt..://www.abc.com",
"title": "ASD - Log In or Sign Up ",
"description": "Create an account or log in….",
"display_url": "htt..://www.abc.com/",
"video_url": "",
"image": "htt..://www.asd.com/images/asds_325x325.png",
"img_wxh": "325x325"
}
}
}
"""
let jsonData = jsonString.data(using: .utf8)
do {
let parsedData = try JSONDecoder().decode(MetaData.self, from: jsonData!)
print(parsedData)
} catch {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
And it works.
Also your json have some issue so make sure you validate your json format.
you can use jsonlint.com for validating json.
