Alamofire network calls not being run in background thread

I was wrong about Alamofire running on a background thread by default. It actually runs on the main queue by default. I've opened an issue on Alamofire's Github page and it's been solved here: https://github.com/Alamofire/Alamofire/issues/1922

The correct way to solve my problem was to specify what kind of queue I want my request to be run on using the "queue" parameter on the .responseJSON method (

.responseJSON(queue: queue) { response in...}

)

This is the entire, corrected version of my code:

let productsEndPoint: String = "http://api.test.com/Products?username=testuser"    let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.test.api", qos: .background, attributes: .concurrent)    Alamofire.request(productsEndPoint, method: .get)        .responseJSON(queue: queue) { response in            // check for errors            guard response.result.error == nil else {                // got an error in getting the data, need to handle it                print("Inside error guard")                print(response.result.error!)                return            }            // make sure we got some JSON since that's what we expect            guard let json = response.result.value as? [String: Any] else {                print("didn't get products as JSON from API")                print("Error: \(response.result.error)")                return            }            // get and print the title            guard let products = json["products"] as? [[String: Any]] else {                print("Could not get products from JSON")                return            }            print(products)     }
