As per the above error,My watchos project is selected in both watchos extension and ios extension. (WKAlertAction class in unavailable in ios and available in Watchos).

The error tells you that the class in question is only declared, but no definition is found. That happens, for example, if you declare a class with @class WKAlertAction in a header because it is a parameter's type. As soon as you're trying to actually use that, though, i.e. send messages to the object in the implementation, you get this error, because the compiler can't find the actual definition of the class.

Without seeing your entire code I can't say for sure, but I guess you simply forgot to include the framework or module. Make sure you have the @import WatchKit; somewhere in the relevant scope, i.e. probably in the implementation file you see the error in.
