Convert JSON string to PHP Array

Question

I have the following JSON string, which was an Objective C array then encoded to JSON:

 $jsonString=[\\\"a@gmail.com\\\",\\\"b@gmail.com\\\",\\\"c@gmail.com\         


        

Answer 1

You should quote your string, it works fine, see here.

$jsonString = '["m@gmail.com","b@gmail.com","c@gmail.com"]';
$arrayOfEmails=json_decode($jsonString);

Or

$jsonString = "[\"a@gmail.com\",\"b@gmail.com\",\"c@gmail.com\"]";
$arrayOfEmails=json_decode($jsonString);
