I have an array of data "electricity" which I am getting from the server. I have a button inside a UITableView Cell name "copyPinButton". Inside 'cellForRowAt indexPath' I am placing the data necessarily. I want to copy a string value that I am getting from the server by pressing 'copyPinButton'. Thanks in advance.

import UIKit

class ElectricityBillTransactionHistoryViewController: BaseViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var electricityTransactionHistoryTableView: UITableView!
    private var electricity = [Electricity]()
    
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        electricityTransactionHistoryTableView.delegate = self
        electricityTransactionHistoryTableView.dataSource = self
        electricityTransactionHistory()
    }
    func electricityTransactionHistory() {
        webserviceHandler.transactionHIstory(onCompletion: { (TransactionHistoryResponse) in
            if TransactionHistoryResponse.code == 200 {
                self.electricity = TransactionHistoryResponse.data?.electricity ?? []
                self.electricityTransactionHistoryTableView.delegate = self
                self.electricityTransactionHistoryTableView.dataSource = self
                self.electricityTransactionHistoryTableView.reloadData()
            }else {
                self.showDialog(title: nil, message: TransactionHistoryResponse.message ?? K.Messages.DefaultErrorMessage, onDefaultActionButtonTap: nil)
            }
        }, onFailure: { ( _) in
            self.showDialog(title: nil, message: K.Messages.DefaultErrorMessage, onDefaultActionButtonTap: nil)
        }, shouldShowLoader: true)
    }

Use UIPasteboard directly

// write to clipboard

UIPasteboard.general.string = "Hello world"

// read from clipboard

let content = UIPasteboard.general.string

Check this question for more detailed answers

You can copy text or string using UIPasteboard like below:

@IBAction func copyButtonTapped(_ sender: Any) {
   UIPasteboard.general.string = "Your value"
}
