This is my code of the json object. I'm trying to get an image dictionary into the images value. I've tried a lot of things and maybe I'm missing something. 

 let jsonObject: [String: Any] = [
        "name_space": "users",
        "data_collection": "data://brownfosman5000/DatFace/",
        "action" : "add_images",
        "images": []
    ]

I have created a json dictionary to hold the images

let imageDictionary = try! JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: imageJSON, options: []) as! [String : Any]

I have also created an array to hold the array of imageDictionaries

let images:NSMutableArray = NSMutableArray()
self.images.add(imageDictionary)

How can I add the images array to the array in my json as a dictionary? Everything prints out nice I just need to add it to the json.

First of all never use NSMutable... collection types in Swift. Use a native type with the var keyword

var images = [[String:Any]]()

Second of all make jsonObject also mutable

var jsonObject: [String: Any] = [ ...

Append the dictionary to images

images.append(imageDictionary)

Assign the array to the dictionary for key images

jsonObject["images"] = images
