Is WKAudioFileAsset an audio file and can it be sent to a server?

Question

I tried to look for a solution but could not find anything. I want to know whether a WKAudioFileAsset is an audio file? Can it be considered as a .wav file? Is it possible to send a WKAudioFileAsset to a php server? Can you post some sample code how to the send a WKAudioFileAsset/AVAsset to the server?

This is the code I have until now. I need the audio file from the document directory.

        do{
            try recordingSession.setCategory(AVAudioSession.Category.playAndRecord)
            try recordingSession.setActive(true)
