How to get the response data out of the NSHTTPURLResponse in the callback of AFJSONRequestOperation?

I have a situation where I need to access the raw response data for an AFJSONRequestOperation, from within the callback block which includes only NSHTTPURLResponse. I am able to get the statusCode from the NSHTTPURLResponse, but don't see any way to get to the raw data. Is there a good way that anyone knows of to access this from the failure callback block of this operation?

In the callback from responseJSON you can get the body from a DataResponse<Any> object using response.result.value or String(data:response.data!, encoding: .utf8).

You can't get it from response.response, which is a NSHTTPURLResponse object. This only has header info.

Alamofire.request(URL(string: "https://foo.com")!).validate(statusCode: 200..<300).responseJSON() { response in
    let body = response.result.value
}

If the http response doesn't validate the above doesn't work. but this does:

Alamofire.request(URL(string: "https://foo.com")!).validate(statusCode: 200..<300).responseJSON() { response in
    let body = String(data:response.data!, encoding: .utf8)
}

Old question, but anyway...

You don't need to get to the operation object, you can easily do something like:

NSData * data = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:JSON options:0 error:nil]];

With the JSON id that the callback receives.

NSHTTPURLResponse only contains HTTP header information; no body data. So no, this would be impossible. If you have any control over this code, have the block or method pass the operation itself and get responseData or responseJSON.
