Single quote character in Swift

Trying to add a single quote ' character in my code in Swift, but it's constantly adding a \' and this is necessarily for an API Call.

My code is: 

let locationLat = String(format: "%f", (currentLocation?.coordinate.latitude)!)
let locationLong = String(format: "%f", (currentLocation?.coordinate.longitude)!)
let apiLocation = "$filter=geo.distance(Location,geographyPoint" + "(" + locationLat + locationLong + ")) le 0.1"

I need to make the apiLocation variable look like: 

$filter=geo.distance(Location, geography'POINT(lat, long)') le 0.5&searchMode=all&$count=true

Let me know thanks.

print(myText)

Output

'

Using escape character for single quotes \' = ' and interpolation (\())for variables you can achieve this in one string. 

let apiLocation = "$filter=geo.distance(Location, geography\'POINT(\(locationLat), \(locationLong))\' le 0.5&searchMode=all$count=true"
