I am querying a 3rd party service which outputs json.
$data = json_decode($result,true);
var_dump ($data);
$data holds this:
{"response":{"status":"OK","token":"hbapi:187089:586e655ed1f9c:nym2","dbg_info":{"instance":"53.bm-hbapi.prod.ams1","slave_hit":false,"db":"master","parent_dbg_info":{"instance":"64.bm-hbapi.prod.nym2","slave_hit":false,"db":"master","parent_dbg_info":{"instance":"45.bm-api.prod.nym2","slave_hit":false,"db":"master","time":664.07299041748,"version":"1.17","warnings":[],"slave_lag":0,"start_microtime":1483629917.8571},"awesomesauce_cache_used":false,"count_cache_used":false,"uuid":"39e1c17a-7fe4-58ac-9486-c4dd5bbf96a3","warnings":[],"time":1159.7349643707,"start_microtime":1483629917.7835,"version":"1.17.150","slave_lag":0,"output_term":"not_found"},"awesomesauce_cache_used":false,"count_cache_used":false,"uuid":"286ca4bc-6964-50ad-b241-ff9df1304278","warnings":[],"time":1347.2578525543,"start_microtime":1483629917.6534,"version":"1.17.150","slave_lag":0,"output_term":"not_found","master_instance":"64.bm-hbapi.prod.nym2","proxy":true,"master_time":1159.7349643707}}}
I am trying to get the token value.
I tried
$token = $data["response"][0]["token"];
I get NULL
I also tried
$token = $data['response'][0]['token'];
And I still get NULL.
I have looked at How can I access an array/object? and other threads - can't find the issue.
Why are you accessing the pos [0] if isn't an array?
Instead of that try to access to the desired parameter like this:
$token = $data["response"]["token"];
In $data you still have json, so you should call json_decode($data) one more time.
$token = $data["response"]["token"];
json:
{
"response": {
"status": "OK",
"token": "hbapi:187089:586e655ed1f9c:nym2",
"dbg_info": {
}
}
}
$data
is an object (not an array), so you can access response
as a property of this object: $data->response
.
response
is again an object. etc..
For example status
can be called like this: $data->response->status
.
You can see what is an object and what is an array using this code:
print "<pre>";
var_dump($data);
So in your case, to get token
:
$token = $data->response->token
change $data['response'][0]['token'];
to $data['response']['token'];
$data['response'] is, it doesnot have the 0 index.
{
"status": "OK",
"token": "hbapi:187089:586e655ed1f9c:nym2",
"dbg_info": {
}
