Question

I am trying to parse this json data from the url but i get NULL how do i fix this issue.

$source = file_get_contents('http://partners.socialvi.be/e414f702cf3db89a2fe58066bbab369d65b6a058/activities/available.json');

$json = json_decode($source);

var_dump($json);

Answer 1

That’s because the API returns the data in JSONP format, not pure JSON. Notice the surrounding onSVJson([]). You’ll either have to strip this out, or read the API documentation and try another request format. My guess would be that leaving out the final &callback=onSVJson should do the trick.
