It is UIDocumentPickController. Check the apple developer documentation

let documentPicker: UIDocumentPickerViewController = UIDocumentPickerViewController(documentTypes: ["public.text"], in: UIDocumentPickerMode.import)
        documentPicker.delegate = self
        documentPicker.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.formSheet
        self.present(documentPicker, animated: true, completion: nil)

And delegate 

    // MARK: - UIDocumentPickerDelegate Methods

    func documentPicker(_ controller: UIDocumentPickerViewController, didPickDocumentAt url: URL) {
        if controller.documentPickerMode == UIDocumentPickerMode.import {
            // This is what it should be
//            self.newNoteBody.text = String(contentsOfFile: url.path!)
        }
    }

After adding the code you should check this post too or else you will get an exception. You should go to capabilities & turn iCloud capabilities on. Add icloud containers also there

UIDocumentMenuController is the same as UIDocumentPickerViewController. But its deprecated. check the developer documentation here

  • @vaibby yeah `UIDocumentMenuViewController` is the deprecated version of `UIDocumentPickerViewController`. – Amal T S Jul 07 '17 at 12:24
  • its not deprecated. it is dere from iOS 8. – vaibby Jul 07 '17 at 12:28
  • @vaibby Check developer documentation https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uidocumentmenuviewcontroller They say to use UIDocumentPickerViewController instead of UIDocumentMenuViewController – Amal T S Jul 07 '17 at 12:30
  • is ```UIDocumentPickerViewController``` can give me this controller? – vaibby Jul 07 '17 at 12:38

    @vaibby to be clear this is being deprecated in iOS 11 which is still in Beta. If you are targeting iOS 10 you should still use `UIDocumentMenuViewController` and use `UIDocumentPickerViewController` on iOS 11 when it is available. – Slayter Jul 07 '17 at 13:13
