Above is my JSON data in the Google cloud 
Add This is my SWIFT3 code:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController , UITableViewDataSource {
#IBOutlet weak var auctionLabel: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var auctionTableView: UITableView!
var fetchAuctionName = [AuctionName]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
auctionTableView.dataSource = self
parseData()
}
override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {
return true
}
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return fetchAuctionName.count
}
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = auctionTableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell")
cell?.textLabel?.text = fetchAuctionName[indexPath.row].auctionname
cell?.detailTextLabel?.text = fetchAuctionName[indexPath.row].auctionname
return cell!
}
func parseData() {
fetchAuctionName = []
let url = "urll"
var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: url)!)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
let configuration = URLSessionConfiguration.default
let session = URLSession(configuration: configuration, delegate: nil, delegateQueue: OperationQueue.main)
let task = session.dataTask(with: request) { (data, response, error) in
if (error != nil){
print("Error")
}
else{
do{
let fetchData = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!, options: .mutableContainers) as! NSDictionary
let jsonArray = fetchData.value(forKey: "items") as! NSArray
for eachFetchedAuctionName in jsonArray {
let eachAuctionName = eachFetchedAuctionName as! [String : Any]
let auctionname = eachAuctionName["auctionName"] as! String
self.fetchAuctionName.append(AuctionName(auctionname: auctionname));
}
self.auctionTableView.reloadData()
}
catch{
print("Error 2")
}
}
}
task.resume()
}
}
class AuctionName: NSObject {
var auctionname : String
init(auctionname : String) {
self.auctionname = auctionname
}
}
With this code I can print all the status values from the JSON data
My question is; I just need those with a status value of 0 to be printed. How can I modify my code to achieve this?

Try this
func parseData() {
fetchAuctionName = []
let url = "urlllll"
var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: url)!)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
let configuration = URLSessionConfiguration.default
let session = URLSession(configuration: configuration, delegate: nil, delegateQueue: OperationQueue.main)
let task = session.dataTask(with: request) { (data, response, error) in
if (error != nil){
print("Error")
}
else{
do{
let fetchData = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!, options: .mutableContainers) as! NSDictionary
let jsonArray = fetchData.value(forKey: "items") as! NSArray
for eachFetchedAuctionName in jsonArray {
let eachAuctionName = eachFetchedAuctionName as! [String : Any]
let auctionname = eachAuctionName["auctionName"] as! String
if let status = eachAuctionName["staus"] as? Bool{
if status == true{
self.fetchAuctionName.append(AuctionName(auctionname: auctionname));
}
}
}
self.auctionTableView.reloadData()
}
catch{
print("Error 2")
}
}
}
task.resume()
}
}

for eachFetchedAuctionName in jsonArray {
let eachAuctionName = eachFetchedAuctionName as! [String : Any]
let auctionname = eachAuctionName["auctionName"] as! String
self.fetchAuctionName.append(AuctionName(auctionname: auctionname));
// you can typecast to either String or an Int and then compare it respectively
//with a String "1" or an Int(1), whichever suits your app
guard let status = eachAuctionName["status"] as! Int else { return }
if status == 0 {
print("0 found")
}
}
One suggestion: use swift 4 Decodable protocol, to parse JSON easily into custom objects either a struct or a class of your choice, makes the code looks nice and clean.

assigning "Get" Request data to Text field

My get data response is like
I want "title" and "date" should be shown in my view controller "label values"
get method calls when app running and the data should display in either text fields "or" in label

guard let url = URL(string: "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users") else { fatalError() }
let session = URLSession.shared
session.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
if let response = response {

if let data = data {
print(data)
do {

The result contains multiple users, so you should first iterate over them and find the user you want. Then you can set text on your UI elements in the Main thread.
guard let url = URL(string: "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users") else { fatalError() }
typealias User = [String: Any]
let session = URLSession.shared
session.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
if let response = response {
print(response)
}
if let data = data {
print(data)
do {
let usersJson = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: []) as! [User]
print(usersJson)
// Since the result is an array of users
for user in usersJson {
guard let userName = user["username"] as? String else { return assertionFailure("Invalid username") }
print(userName)
// All UI works should done in main thread
DispatchQueue.main.async {
<#usernameLabel#>.text = username
}
}
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
}.resume()
I suggest you take a look at Swift Codable. It will boost your coding and minimize syntax and human errors.

how to make variable and use in UITableView in swift 3

I am successfully appending "title" , "url" and Video in these Global Variables but when I am trying to use in numberOfRowsInSection as ( return titleName.count ) so I am getting nil or in (cellForRowAt indexPath: ) as cell.videoTitle.text = titleName[indexPath.row] so I am getting nil..
Globalvariables is ...
var titleName:[String] = []
var videoID:[String] = []
var valueKey:[String] = []
and then in viewDidLoad()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tableView.delegate = self
tableView.dataSource = self
let urlRequest = URL(string: urlString)
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: urlRequest! , completionHandler:{(data, response, error) -> Void in
if (error != nil ){
print(error.debugDescription)
} else {

dataTask(with works asynchronously. Move tableView.reloadData() into the completion block at the end of the closure.
Two notes:
A JSON dictionary in Swift 3 is [String:Any].
You are discouraged from using multiple arrays as data source. Use a custom struct or class.
Your code snippets above missing the portion where you retrieve the JSON into the data that was later used by the JSONSerialization in viewDidLoad().
As example of a complete snippet, please check the question in this thread: How to get json to populate UITableView in Swift 3?

Swift and JSON parsing only an object not an array

I am working on a weather app that parses JSON data and sets the text of my label to the temp value of the JSON request. I got the value of id from the weather object array, but the temp is not in an array it is just an object. Can someone please tell me where I am wrong. My value is reurning nil because I am not fetching it correctly. Here is my snippet and JSON.
#IBAction func getWeather(sender: AnyObject) {
let requestURL: NSURL = NSURL(string: "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?lat=35&lon=139&appid=MYAPPID")!
let urlRequest: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: requestURL)
let session = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let task = session.dataTaskWithRequest(urlRequest) {
(data, response, error) -> Void in
let httpResponse = response as! NSHTTPURLResponse
let statusCode = httpResponse.statusCode
if (statusCode == 200) {
print("JSON Downloaded Sucessfully.")
do{
let json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options:.AllowFragments)
if let today = json["weather"] as? [[String: AnyObject]] {
//this is pulling 4 key value pairs
for weather in today {
//this works
let id = weather["id"]?.stringValue
self.trumpDescription.text=id;
print(id)
//this is where I am confused it changes from an array to just an object
let temp = json["temp"] as? String
self.currentTempView.text=temp;
print(temp)
}
}
}
catch {
print("Error with Json: \(error)")
}
}
}
task.resume()
}`
Here is the JSON:
{
"coord": {
"lon": 138.93,
"lat": 34.97
},
"weather": [
{
"id": 803,
"main": "Clouds",
"description": "broken clouds",
"icon": "04n"
}
],
"base": "cmc stations",
"main": {
"temp": 292.581,
"pressure": 1019.48,
"humidity": 99,
"temp_min": 292.581,
"temp_max": 292.581,
"sea_level": 1028.92,
"grnd_level": 1019.48
},
"wind": {
"speed": 5.36,
"deg": 237.505
},
"clouds": {
"all": 64
},
"dt": 1464964606,
"sys": {
"message": 0.0037,
"country": "JP",

"sunset": 1464947666
},
"id": 1851632,
"name": "Shuzenji",
"cod": 200
}
It looks like it should be
if let main = json["main"] as? NSDictionary {
let temp = main["temp"] as! String
print(temp)
}
Instead of this:
let temp = json["temp"] as? String
Try this:
if let main = json["main"] as? [String: AnyObject] {
let temp = main[temp]?.stringValue
print(temp)
//alternatively you can try this as per your convenience of data type
let tempNew = main[temp]?.doubleValue
print(tempNew)
}

NSJSONSerialization return nil with a valid json

I try to parse a response which return a valid JSON with NSJSonSerialization. But it returns nil with no error. It works with another JSON response.
I did some search, and this could be a problem with the encoding of the JSON. I don't know how to solve it. Any idea ?
let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
self.searchRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
if let searchRequest = self.searchRequest {
searchRequest.HTTPMethod = "GET"
let authString : String = SNCF.APIKey + ":" + ""
let authData : NSData = authString.dataUsingEncoding(NSASCIIStringEncoding)!
let authValue : String = "Basic " + authData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(.EncodingEndLineWithCarriageReturn)
searchRequest.setValue(authValue, forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization")
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(searchRequest, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
do {
//HERE JSONRESULT WILL BE NIL
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: []) as? [String: [AnyObject]] {
print("ASynchronous\(jsonResult)")
if let places = jsonResult["stop_areas"] as? [[String:AnyObject]]{
for placeDictionary in places {
if let labelText = placeDictionary["label"] as? String {
self.resultDatasource.append(labelText)
}
}
self.resultTableView.reloadData()
}
}
//HERE NO ERROR IS CATCHED
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
})
Piece of my json response :

The type of the JSON is [String: AnyObject] not [String: [AnyObject]]
I think this is the problem:
as? [String: [AnyObject]]
Try to remove the cast. If your JSON is correct and has no validation errors, the dictionary you get probably has the key value of type Any. You can try to use the dictionary by only casting the value keys you want:
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: nil) {
print("ASynchronous\(jsonResult)")
if let places = jsonResult["stop_areas"] as? [[String:AnyObject]] {
...
}
}
Try This
do {
if let jsonResult: Dictionary = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(self.mutableData, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers) as? Dictionary<String, AnyObject>
{
// print("get Read messages == \(jsonResult)");
if ((jsonResult["Warning"]) != nil)
{
let error_by_wc: NSString = jsonResult["Warning"] as! String
//print("results == \(error_by_wc)");
// printMessage("\(error_by_wc)")
JLToast.makeText("\(error_by_wc)").show()
}else if((jsonResult["Error"]) != nil)
{
let error_by_wc: NSString = jsonResult["Error"] as! String
// print("results == \(error_by_wc)");
// printMessage("\(error_by_wc)")
JLToast.makeText("\(error_by_wc)").show()
}
else
{
// read message s
}
} catch {
print(error)
}
If Data is Array Type Use this code
do {
if let jsonResult:NSArray = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(self.mutableData, options: .MutableContainers) as? NSArray {
//print(jsonResult)
aDataBase.insertFromUserImage(jsonResult)
connection_allMEssages()
}else
{
//print("not data found")
BProgressHUD.dismissHUD(0)
}
} catch {
print(error)
BProgressHUD.dismissHUD(0)
}

Swift IOS Reading JSON from url

On the below method, I can get the place value but not the location value. how can I get the location?
Thank you in advance!!

Adding a little formatting to the pertinent part of the data:
sample data: {
"formatted_address": "8-12 Rue Boissy d'Anglas, 75008 Paris, France",
"geometry": {
"location": {
"lat": 48.868194,
"lng": 2.321596
}
},
"icon": "http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/place_api/icons/bar-71.png",
"id": "560dd225114fd10997f75ee777bad84bcb40c529",
"name": "Buddha-Bar",
It is unclear what "sample data:" means as it is not quoted, it may be something added by the print statement (my guess) in which case it is not needed to access the components.
The name would be addresses as:
["name"]
The location is in lat/lon so there will be two accesses:
["geometry"]["location"]["lat"]
["geometry"]["location"]["lon"]
In the above the applicable language syntax must be applied, in Swift there will be some pain.
See json.org for information on JSON.
After some frustration and game of thrones. the messy solution was the one below.
an alternative may be api like
https://github.com/lingoer/SwiftyJSON
func searchDB(looking: String){
var errorOccurred:Bool = false
var urlString:String = "URLGOESHERE?q=\(looking)"
let url = NSURL(string: urlString)
let session = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let task = session.dataTaskWithURL(url!, completionHandler: { (data, response, error) -> Void in
if error != nil {
println(error)
errorOccurred = true
} else {
// println(response) //response from post
//processing data
let jsonObject : AnyObject! = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil)
if let statusesArray = jsonObject as? NSArray{
println("********* LEVEL 1 *******")
println(statusesArray[0])
if let aStatus = statusesArray[0] as? NSDictionary{
println("********* LEVEL 2 *******")
println(aStatus)
if let geometry = aStatus["geometry"] as? NSDictionary{
println("********* LEVEL 3 *******")
println(geometry)
if let currLocation = geometry["location"] as? NSDictionary{
println("********* LEVEL 4 *******")
println(currLocation)
println(currLocation["lat"])
println(currLocation["lng"])
}
}
}
}
else {
errorOccurred = true
}
}//eo potential data
})
task.resume()
}//eom
