If you are getting a standard json response from the api, you can just json_decode() it and use it like this:
<?php
// Do your curl request and get json_response here...
// Decode json response
$result = json_decode($json_response);
// All of the fields are then accessed like this:
// $result->device_model (for e.g.)
?>
<b>Device Model</b>: <?php echo $result->device_model ?>
<br>
<b>Device Type</b>: <?php echo $result->device_type ?>
etc...
If you prefer to work with array instead, you can do this:
// Decode json response
$result = json_decode($json_responsem true);
// Then use it like this:
// $result['device_model'] etc...
