Issue

I have an cURL file that will return an array like below and I wonder how can I declare the variable of [data]=>[id].I tried like $decoded.data or $decoded.[data] but it does not work.

Array
(
    [data] => Array
        (
            [id] => 2
            [email] => [email protected]
            [first_name] => Janet
            [last_name] => Weaver
            [avatar] => https://reqres.in/img/faces/2-image.jpg
        )

    [support] => Array
        (
            [url] => https://reqres.in/#support-heading
            [text] => To keep ReqRes free, contributions towards server costs are appreciated!
        )

)

PHP file:

<?php
  $ch = curl_init();
  $url = "https://reqres.in/api/users/2";
  curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
  $resp = curl_exec($ch);
  $decoded = json_decode($resp,true);
  print_r($decoded);
  curl_close($ch);
?>

Solution

$decoded['data']
$decoded['data']['id']

is the syntax. But the endpoint must return the array that you have printed with json_encode()
