Reading Json Curl content results in php - php

Question

I have a json output below that am trying to get its contents
{"content":"people",
"nextLink":"https://example.com/people?$skip=3",
"value":[
{
"id":"100","displayName":"Room Rainier",
"Addresses":[{"location":"12 orlando street","Spore":8.0}],
"phones":[{"type":"home","number":"10000000000"}],
"personType":{"class":"new","subclass":"Room1"}
},
{
"id":"102","displayName":"Tony Blur",
"Addresses":[{"location":"19 saco street","Spore":4.0}],
"phones":[{"type":"business","number":"1080000000"}],
"personType":{"class":"Other","subclass":"Room2"}
},
{
"id":"103","displayName":"veronica huges",
"Addresses":[{"location":"6 nano street","Spore":7.0}],
"phones":[{"type":"business","number":"111000000"}],
"personType":{"class":"old","subclass":"Room5"}
}]}
Below is my working Json Curl in PHP
<?php
session_start();
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_URL => "https://example.com/people",
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
//CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "GET",
//CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => "$data",
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
"authorization: Bearer --my bearer goes here--"
),
));
$response = curl_exec($curl);
$err = curl_error($curl);
curl_close($curl);
$res=json_decode($response);
$res1=json_decode($response, true);
$js = json_decode($response, true);
echo '<pre>' . print_r($response, true) . '</pre>';
$re = $js['value'];
foreach ($re as $value1) {
echo $value1['id'];
echo '<br>';
echo $value1['Addresses']['location'];
echo '<br>';
echo $value1['phones']['type'];
echo '<br>';
}
if ($err) {
echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
} else {
//echo $response;
}
?>
my success
I was able to get all values for id **(echo $value1['id'])** in for each loops.
my Problem
1.) I cannot get values for Addresses Locations **(echo $value1['Addresses']['location'])** and phones Types **(echo $value1['phones']['type'])** in for each loop respectively as it shows nothing.
2.) The json file has a next link options hence
"nextLink":"https://example.com/people?$skip=3"
how can I display more users/peoples data based on the link. Thanks

The Addresses and Phones are Arrays so if you want to get the first you can use index 0 or you can get all with loop in case there is more than 1 address or phone.
foreach ($re as $value1) {
/**
* To get the first address and phone use index 0
*/
echo $value1['Addresses'][0]['location'];
echo $value1['phones'][0]['type'];
/**
* Loop to get all addresses and phones
*/
foreach($value1['Addresses'] as $address) {
echo $address['location'];
}
foreach($value1['phones'] as $phone) {
echo $phone['type'];
}
}
If there is a next link you should request the nextLink just use curl again with the next link.
It will be easier if you create a function for this and just call the function again with the next link.
