Question

how can I get the response string from failure block in AFNetworking 3.x,

In the 2.x version the way to do it was:

[manager GET:path parameters:param

- (void)requestWithURL:(NSString *)url parameterDictionary:(NSMutableDictionary *)data  requestType:(NSString *)reqType  handler:(NSObject *)handler selector:(SEL)selector
{

  // reqType is POST or GET
  // handler would be self if you define selector method in same class
  AFURLSessionManager *manager = [[AFURLSessionManager alloc] initWithSessionConfiguration:[NSURLSessionConfiguration defaultSessionConfiguration]];

  NSMutableURLRequest *req = [[AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer] requestWithMethod:reqType URLString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",url] parameters:nil error:nil];

req.timeoutInterval= [[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] valueForKey:@"timeoutInterval"] longValue];
[req setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[req setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Accept"];
if (data != nil) {
    NSLog(@"Data is not nil");
    NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:data options:0 error:&error];
    NSString *jsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:jsonData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
    [req setHTTPBody:[jsonString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];

}else{
    NSLog(@"Data is nil");
}

[[manager dataTaskWithRequest:req completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse * _Nonnull response, id  _Nullable responseObject, NSError * _Nullable error) {

    if (!error) {
//            NSLog(@"Reply JSON: %@", responseObject);
        [handler performSelector:selector withObject:responseObject];
        if ([responseObject isKindOfClass:[NSDictionary class]]) {
            //blah blah
        }
    } else {
        NSLog(@"Error: %@, %@, %@", error, response, responseObject);
        [handler performSelector:selector withObject:responseObject];
    }
}] resume];
}
