Cannot use mutating member on immutable value of type

When you apply type casting to value types (such structs), if succeed, you receive immutable copy of requested value:

(self.data as! ModelOne) // this is copy of data

The only way (as known to me) how you can mutate values that need to be casted - reassign value (as @Sahil Beri pointed you need declare variable):

func someFunc() {
    if var data = data as? ModelOne {
        data.setSub(ModelOne.SubModelOne(someVar: 2, otherVar: 1))
        self.data = data // you can do this since ModelOne conforms to SuperModel
    }
}

Use like this,

struct UserAttributes {
var name:String?
var organizationID:String?
var email:String?

mutating func parseUserAttributes(attribues:[AWSCognitoIdentityProviderAttributeType])->UserAttributes{

    for type in attribues{
        if type.name == "name"{
            name = type.value
        }else if(type.name == "family_name"){
            organizationID = type.value
        }else if(type.name == "custom:role_id"){
            role = type.value
        }else if(type.name == "email"){
            email = type.value
         }

     }

   }  
 }

In some other file call like this,

var userAttributes = UserAttributes()
userAttributes = userAttributes.parseUserAttributes(attribues:attributes)
