Swift Alamofire How to get the HTTP response status code

Question

I would like to retrieve the HTTP response status code  e g  400  401  403  503  etc  for request failures  and ideally for successes too   In this code  I am performing user authentication with HTTP Basic and want to be able to message the user that authentication failed when the user mistypes their password     Alamofire request  GET   https   host com a path   authenticate user   user   password   typo         responseString    req  res  data  error  in          if error    nil                println  STRING Error   error   error                 println    req   req                 println    res   res                 println    data   data                 return                     println  SUCCESS for String            responseJSON    req  res  data  error  in          if error    nil                println  JSON Error   error   error                 println    req   req                 println    res   res                 println    data   data                 return                     println  SUCCESS for JSON           Unfortunately  the error produced does not seem to indicate that an HTTP status code 409 was actually received     STRING Error   error Optional Error Domain NSURLErrorDomain Code -999  cancelled  UserInfo 0x7f9beb8efce0  NSErrorFailingURLKey https   host com a path  NSLocalizedDescription cancelled  NSErrorFailingURLStringKey https   host com a path      req  lt NSMutableURLRequest  0x7f9beb89d5e0 gt    URL  https   host com a path      res nil    data Optional      JSON Error   error Optional Error Domain NSURLErrorDomain Code -999  cancelled  UserInfo 0x7f9beb8efce0  NSErrorFailingURLKey https   host com a path  NSLocalizedDescription cancelled  NSErrorFailingURLStringKey https   host com a path      req  lt NSMutableURLRequest  0x7f9beb89d5e0 gt    URL  https   host com a path      res nil    data nil      Additionally  it would be nice to retrieve the HTTP body when an error occurs because my server-side will put a textual description of the error there     Questions  Is it possible to retrieve the status code upon a non-2xx response   Is it possible to retrieve the specific status code upon a 2xx response   Is it possible to retrieve the HTTP body upon a non-2xx response     Thanks

For Swift 3 x   Swift 4 0   Swift 5 0 users with Alamofire  gt   5 0 Used request modifier to increase and decrease the timeout interval  Alamofire s request creation methods offer the most common parameters for customization but sometimes those just aren t enough  The URLRequests created from the passed values can be modified by using a RequestModifier closure when creating requests  For example  to set the URLRequest s timeoutInterval to 120 seconds  modify the request in the closure  var manager   Session default  manager request urlString  method  method  parameters  dict  headers  headers  requestModifier     0 timeoutInterval   120    validate   responseJSON   response in  OR RequestModifiers also work with trailing closure syntax  var manager   Session default      manager request  quot https   httpbin org get quot     urlRequest in     urlRequest timeoutInterval   60     urlRequest allowsConstrainedNetworkAccess   false    response

Your error indicates that the operation is being cancelled for some reason  I d need more details to understand why  But I think the bigger issue may be that since your endpoint https   host com a path is bogus  there is no real server response to report  and hence you re seeing nil    If you hit up a valid endpoint that serves up a proper response  you should see a non-nil value for res  using the techniques Sam mentions  in the form of a NSURLHTTPResponse object with properties like statusCode  etc   Also  just to be clear  error is of type NSError  It tells you why the network request failed  The status code of the failure on the server side is actually a part of the response    Hope that helps answer your main question

In your responseJSON completion  you can get the status code from the response object  which has a type of NSHTTPURLResponse    if let response   res       var statusCode   response statusCode     This will work regardless of whether the status code is in the error range  For more information  take a look at the NSHTTPURLResponse documentation   For your other question  you can use the responseString function to get the raw response body  You can add this in addition to responseJSON and both will be called    responseJson    req  res  json  error  in       existing code    responseString          body     in       body is a String  containing the response body

I needed to know how to get the actual error code number   I inherited a project from someone else and I had to get the error codes from a  catch clause that they had previously setup for Alamofire      catch    error  in      guard let error   error as  AFError else   return       guard let statusCode   error responseCode else   return        print  Alamofire statusCode num is     statusCode      Or if you need to get it from the response value follow  mbryzinski s answer  Alamofire        response  in      guard let error   response result error as  AFError else   return       guard let statusCode   error responseCode else   return        print  Alamofire statusCode num is     statusCode
