Great answer a slight modification to show how the textfield can be used:

func addRow (row: Int, bodin: String, flag: Int) {
    let alertController = UIAlertController(title: bodin, message: "", preferredStyle: .alert)
    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Save", style: .default, handler: {
        alert -> Void in
        _ = alertController.textFields![0] as UITextField

    }))
    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel, handler: nil))

    alertController.addTextField(configurationHandler: {(textField : UITextField!) -> Void in
        switch flag {
        case 0:
            textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.phonePad
            textField.placeholder = "Enter Number"
        case 1:
            textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.emailAddress
            textField.placeholder = "Enter Email"
        default:
            break
        }

    })
