How to add textField in UIAlertController?

I want to realize a function about changing password. It requires users to input their previous password in an alert dialog.

I want to click the button "Confirm the modification" then jump to the other view controller for changing password. I have written some code, but I don't know how to write in the next moment.

UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"Change password" message:@"Please input your previous password" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];

[alertController addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler:^(UITextField *textField) {
    textField.placeholder = @"please input your previous password";
    textField.secureTextEntry = YES;
}];

UIAlertAction *cancelAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"cancel" style:UIAlertActionStyleCancel handlers:nil];

UIAlertAction *okAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Confirm the modification" style:UIAlertActionStyleDestructive handler:*(UIAlertAction *alertAction) {
    if (condition) {
        statements
    }
}];

[alertController addAction:cancelAction];
[alertController addAction:okAction];
[self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];

You will get all added textfields from alert controller by its textFields readonly property, you can use it to get its text. Like

Swift 4:

let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "", message: "", preferredStyle: .alert)
alertController.addTextField { textField in
    textField.placeholder = "Password"
    textField.isSecureTextEntry = true
}
let confirmAction = UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .default) { [weak alertController] _ in
    guard let alertController = alertController, let textField = alertController.textFields?.first else { return }
    print("Current password \(String(describing: textField.text))")
    //compare the current password and do action here
}
alertController.addAction(confirmAction)
let cancelAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel, handler: nil)
alertController.addAction(cancelAction)
present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)

Note: textField.text is optional, unwrap it before using

Objective-C:

UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"" message:@"" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];
[alertController addTextFieldWithConfigurationHandler:^(UITextField * _Nonnull textField) {
    textField.placeholder = @"Current password";
    textField.secureTextEntry = YES;
}];
UIAlertAction *confirmAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"OK" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault handler:^(UIAlertAction * _Nonnull action) {
    NSLog(@"Current password %@", [[alertController textFields][0] text]);
    //compare the current password and do action here

}];
[alertController addAction:confirmAction];
UIAlertAction *cancelAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Cancel" style:UIAlertActionStyleCancel handler:^(UIAlertAction * _Nonnull action) {
    NSLog(@"Canelled");
}];
[alertController addAction:cancelAction];
[self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];

By [[alertController textFields][0] text] this line, it will take first textfield added to the alerController and get its text.

You can add multiple textfields to alert controller and access them with the alert controller's textFields property

If the new password is an empty string, present the alert again. Or another way would be to disable the "Confirm" button, enabling it only when text field has text.

UIAlertAction *okAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"confirm the modification" style:UIAlertActionStyleDestructive handler:^(UIAlertAction * _Nonnull action) {
    UITextField *password = alertController.textFields.firstObject;
    if (![password.text isEqualToString:@""]) {

        //change password

    }
    else{
        [self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];
    }
}];
