I have developed a Swift wrapper over the entire C Keychain API. See if it can be useful for you: https://github.com/deniskr/KeychainSwiftAPI

Another note about this, if you are using this code and you want the keys to be accessible from the lockscreen, like in a background fetch, you need to adjust the kSecAttrAccessible value
