How to get data from Json using Delete method in swift 3?

Question

I am unable to implement the JSON using DELETE method to get data from server. Is this the right way to implement delete method, if not can anyone help me?

Here is my code

func deleteWishListItemsDownloadJsonWithURl(deleteApi: String){
        let url = URL(string: deleteApi)
        var request = URLRequest(url: url! as URL)
        request.httpMethod = "DELETE"

        let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { (data, response, error) in
            if error != nil { print(error!); return }
            do {
                if let jsonObj = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!) as? String {
                    print(jsonObj)
                    DispatchQueue.main.async {
                       self.tableDetails.reloadData()
                    }
                }
            } catch {
                print(error)
            }
        }
        task.resume()
    }

Method seems to correct me. HTTP Method can be POST, PUT and DELETE". Did you try it using POSTMan? Is it working on Postman? — Waseem, Nov 08 '17 at 08:45
Ok, are we getting Response data? Can you paste it? Might be it's not proper JSON response. — Waseem, Nov 08 '17 at 08:48
here is the error **Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 "JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set." UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.}** @Waseem — user0246, Nov 08 '17 at 08:53
JSON response is not proper. you can try to create JSON object with option like.. let jsonObj = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data as Data, options: .allowFragments) — Waseem, Nov 08 '17 at 08:59

Just replace the

 let jsonObj = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!) as! String

with

let jsonObj = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!) as! [String:Any]

Also you can take reference from Correctly Parsing JSON in Swift 3
