Any idea why is not taking the answer!?? The answer should be case model = "model"
import Foundation
struct Vehicle: Codable {
let model: String
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey
{
case model = "model"
}
}

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Christian A. Castro ! I thought that, too. In fact, I was stuck on this one question of this quiz for a while. Then I went out to the Apple Developer documentation here
And I found this:
If the keys used in your serialized data format don't match the property names from your data type, provide alternative keys by specifying String as the raw-value type for the CodingKeys enumeration. The string you use as a raw value for each enumeration case is the key name used during encoding and decoding. The association between the case name and its raw value lets you name your data structures according to the Swift API Design Guidelines rather than having to match the names, punctuation, and capitalization of the serialization format you're modeling.
Now, this might sound like a lot, but take a look at the example below that. You'll see that you're actually putting a bit too much information here.
It's not:
case model = "model"
It's just:
case model
Hope this helps!
