Choose segue based on condition

I want to choose a segue for my UITableVieController cells based on whether the data for a row matches. I have 2 segues currently (only one from the cell as that's the maximum I could do) but I can't seem to get it to work. 

override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {

    let indexPath = self.tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
    let free = allAlbums[indexPath!.row].free

    if free == "1"
    {

        if segue.destination is CaseViewController
        {
            let vc = segue.destination as? CaseViewController


            vc?.title = allAlbums[indexPath!.row].title
        }
    }
    else {
    }
}

override func shouldPerformSegue(withIdentifier identifier: String, sender: Any?) -> Bool {

    if identifier == "caseDetail" {
        let indexPath = self.tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
        let free = allAlbums[indexPath!.row].free
        if free == "1"
        {
            self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "caseDetail", sender: self)
        }
        else {
            self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "paidCase", sender: self)
        }
    }

    return true
}

Essentially, the cell's 'free' value is 1 then it needs to go to one view controller, otherwise it will go to another.

Don't do performSegue inside shouldPerformSegue you need to check the value before you do the perform and act accordingly as this will cause a recursive calls as performSegue will call shouldPerformSegue again and infinitely

You need to place this inside didSelectRowAt

let free = allAlbums[indexPath.row].free
if free == "1"  {
  self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "caseDetail", sender: self)
}
else {
   self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "paidCase", sender: self)
}

with hooking the source of the segue to the vc itself not to the cell
