Lets say you have two viewControllers, FirstViewController and SecondTableViewController. Create a segue identifier for embedded segue in your storyboard lets say "SecondTableViewControllerContainerSegue"

class FirstViewController: UIViewController {
  private var someValueFromFirstVC = 5
  private var childContainerController:SecondTableViewController?

 override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {

    if (segue.identifier == "SecondTableViewControllerContainerSegue"){
        self.childContainerController = segue.destination as? SecondTableViewController
        self.childContrainerController.someValueFromSecondVc = someValueFromFirstVC
    }
  }
}

If your problem is more specific let me know i will update accordingly.

Is the segue "SecondTableViewControllerContainerSegue" from FirstViewController to SecondTableViewController or versa? — Ali Saleh AlAbbad, Apr 05 '18 at 06:03
