swiftyJSON parsing json from NSURL

i would ask a little help..

I have a function which try to get json data from a url. I am using SwiftyJSON.

this is my function:

  func getDataFromUpc(Code: String) {
        print("called getdata")
        let urlString = "http://api.upcdatabase.org/json/mykey/" + Code
         print(urlString)
        let url = NSURL(string: urlString)

        let data = NSData(contentsOfURL: url!)

        let json = JSON(data!)

        print(json)
        print(json["description"])
        self.alert(json["description"].stringValue)


    }

when i try to print the json object on the console i can see this: unknown

and when i try to print json["description"] it's nil.

If i try to call my url with my browser it's works and i get back the json response.

Could anybody please help me what am I doing wrong?

Thank you very much!
