extension UIImage {
    var base64: String? {
        self.jpegData(compressionQuality: 0.0)?.base64EncodedString()

var base64 = image.base64
let imgData = NSData(data: image.jpegData(compressionQuality: 1)!)
var imageSize: Int = imgData.count

As a quick sanity check, pass an actual valid image url in there and see if it returns ok. I can only imagine there is something in there turning the 64 encoded string into an format it does not understand, maybe also try not using maximum compression, 0 might have some odd effect.

Thanks for your advice, yes swift add a ‘optional’ in base 64 formating…, now it works!
