Access textfield of UIAlertController - swift ios8

I'm trying to access the text field of a UIAlertView and I'm using the textFields property and I get the following output from the textFields property:

<_UIAlertControllerTextField: 0x7fe911f96790; 
frame = (4 4; 231 16);  
text = 'THIS IS THE TEXT THAT I JUST ENTERED';  
clipsToBounds = YES; opaque = NO;  
gestureRecognizers = <NSArray: 0x7fe914215cc0>;  
layer = <CALayer: 0x7fe911f96c40>>

As you can see the text does show up, but I need the text separately. textFields.text won't work because its deprecated and cannot be used in Swift.

The textFields are stored in an Array of AnyObject. If you want to access text you should cast it as a UITextField first:

((alert.textFields[0] as UITextField).text)
