Access JSON data in multi array

Question

I know this question is being asked a lot, but I could not find any case similar to mine.

So I have this array printed out of a JSON response:

Array
(
    [contents] => {
    "type": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "previous": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "destination": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "balance": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "work": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "signature": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}

)

I need to access the "destination" value, but keep getting an "invalid offset" error. How do I reach it? Thanks so much in advance!

What did you try? Is that the whole response? It's way better if you show us your efforts, that way we can help you figure it out why it went wrong, so you can learn how to fix it — ishegg

You have given above array with key contents with some json value. First you have to convert that json into array. Check below, it might be help you:

<?php
$array = array(
    'contents' => '{
    "type": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "previous": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "destination": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "balance": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "work": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
    "signature": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}'
);  

$content = json_decode($array['contents'],true);

echo $content['destination'];
