Question

im requesting information from the instagram api in php like this:

<?php $relation = $instagram->get('users/'.$item->id.'/relationship'); 
..

which return this json data array for me:

object(stdClass)#58(2){
    [
        "meta"
    ]=>object(stdClass)#59(1){
        [
            "code"
        ]=>int(200)
    }[
        "data"
    ]=>object(stdClass)#60(3){
        [
            "outgoing_status"
        ]=>string(7)"follows"[
            "target_user_is_private"
        ]=>bool(true)[
            "incoming_status"
        ]=>string(4)"none"
    }
}

note: i used var_dump($relation) to bring this out

what I’m trying to do is loop through this array and display the outgoing status and the incoming status i.e

loop(json-array){
echo outgoing_status;
echo incoming_status;
}

thank you very much..

Answer 1

You have an object (instance of stdClass, the generic object), not an array.

$outgoing_status = $response->data->outgoing_status;
$incoming_status = $response->data->incoming_status;

As a side note, use json_decode($json, TRUE) to return the data as an associative array instead of an object.
