how to add key value of multidimensional array to another array

Question

My problem here is that I need to fetch only one field from array and then store in the another array.

Codes:

$obj = json_decode($event,true);

[data] => Array (

[0] => Array
(
    [metadata] => Array
        (
            [name] => Suchi
            [publicProfileUrl] => http://www.linkedin.com/in/cc

I have tried to fetch summary from array and store it in another array:

$count=0;
$newArray = array();
foreach($obj as $row)
{ 
    $newArray[] = array('summary' => $row);
    $new=$newArray[$count]['summary'][$count]['metadata']['summary'];
    $count++;
}

This is what I'm trying to reach in the end:

    data=> Array
    (
        [0] => Array
            (
                [metadata] => Array

Just target the corresponding data that you want, then since they have the same structure, it'll be the same on the other one:

$new['data'] = array();
foreach($obj['data'] as $values) {
    $new['data'][]['metadata']['summary'] = $values['metadata']['summary'];
    // ^ new assignment
}

echo '<pre>';
print_r($new);

Alternatively, if you do not want a new copy, you could also put a reference on each copy inside the foreach and make an unset() on those indices that you do not want.

foreach($obj['data'] as &$values) {
    unset($values['metadata']['name'], $values['metadata']['publicProfileUrl']);
}

@user3785613 if you want to traverse the new array, its just like the original one: foreach($new['data'] as $values) { echo $values['metadata']['summary']; }
