Updating object in Parse iOS

I am having trouble translating Parse documentation into new Swift requirements. I want to update an object but I keep getting back an error that I can't assign a value of type Bool to type AnyObject? I know the column for "viewed" is Bool. Here is my code.

var query = PFQuery(className:"Post")
query.getObjectInBackgroundWithId(self.threadImageIds[objectIDkey]) {
  (object, error) -> Void in
  if error != nil {
      println(error)
  } else {
      object["viewed"] = true // this is where error is occuring
      object!.saveInBackground()
  }
}

Thanks in advance.

It is not working because you're trying to apply the subscript to the optional and not to the object, so try unwrapping 

object!["viewed"] = true

After a lot of searching and trying to unwrap optionals the way Swift wants me to, the following worked 

    query.getObjectInBackgroundWithId(self.threadImageIds[objectIDkey]) {
        (object, error) -> Void in
        if error != nil {
            println(error)
        } else {
            if let object = object {
                object["viewed"] = true as Bool
            }
            object!.saveInBackground()
        }
    }

You can't store a BOOL there, you need to use a NSNumber of a BOOL. Try true as NSNumber
