Foreach PHP facebook API - php

Question

I have to the following code which is returned from the Facebook API:
Facebook\GraphNodes\GraphObject Object ( [backingData:protected] => Array ( [data] => Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [name] => Mobile Uploads [id] => 680467525306684 [created_time] => 2013-12-09T10:17:39+0000 ) [1] => stdClass Object ( [name] => Timeline Photos [id] => 588255297861241 [created_time] => 2013-06-06T20:12:14+0000 ) [2] => stdClass Object ( [name] => Mercedes CLK55 AMG - Wide Conversion [id] => 732173653469404 [created_time] => 2014-03-20T20:45:17+0000 ) [3] => stdClass Object ( [name] => NISSAN 350Z Colour Change..

These are photo albums pulled in from a Facebook page. I want to loop through them and get the "name", "ID", etc but it appears a normal foreach function returns the following error:
Fatal error: Cannot use object of type Facebook\GraphNodes\GraphObject as array in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/git/facebook/index.php on line 29
Here's the full logic:
$request = new FacebookRequest(
$session,
'GET',
'/588091587877612/albums?fields=name'
);
$response = $request->execute();
$albums = $response->getGraphObject();
print_r ($albums);
foreach($albums['data'] as $album) {
echo $album['name'];
}
Does anyone have any idea why that error is being returned?
Thanks in advance,
Connor

Answer 1

Can you try :
$albums = $response->getGraphObject()->asArray();

Answer 2

Looking at the documentation, it looks like you're not handling the data correctly.
Untested, but here's a suggestion:
$albums = $response->getGraphObject();
$albums_data = $albums->getProperty('data');
foreach ($albums_data as $album) {
echo $album->name;
}
