                    if response.response != nil {
                        self.showAPILogs(fullURL: self.getFullURL(methodName: methodName), response: response.response, statusCode: response.response!.statusCode)

Try

let body: [String: String] = [
        "id": "101",
        "message": test,
        "type": "test"
    ]
    Alamofire.upload(multipartFormData: { MultipartFormData in
        for (key, value) in body {
            MultipartFormData.append(value.data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)!, withName: key)
        }
    }, usingThreshold: UInt64.init(),
       to: "URL",
       method: .post,
       headers: ["Authorization": "Your access token"], // As per the web service requirement
       encodingCompletion: { encodingResult in
        switch encodingResult {
        case .success(let upload, _, _):
            upload.responseJSON { response in

            }
        case .failure(let error):
            print(error)
        }
    })

and see if it works.
