} else {

}
}
dataTask.resume()
}
}
In the 'Create JSON object with data' step, I keep receiving the "extra argument 'error' in call". What is happening? I am unable to find documentation to help me further in this.
// 1. Check HTTP response for successful GET request
if let httpResponse = response as? NSHTTPURLResponse {
switch httpResponse.statusCode {
case 200:
// 2. Create JSON object with data
let jsonDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: nil, error: nil) as? [String: AnyObject]
completion(jsonDictionary)
default:
println("GET request not successful. HTTP status code: \(httpResponse.statusCode)")
}
} else {
println("Error: Not a valid HTTP response")
}
}
dataTask.resume()
}
}
Finally figured it out! Thank you for your input everyone!
