To convert a PHP array to JSON data string, you can use the json_encode($value, $flags, $depth) function. The json_encode() function takes a PHP array as input and returns a JSON string representation. You can customize the conversion of a PHP array to JSON using additional parameters for the json_encode() function, such as "JSON_PRETTY_PRINT", for human-readable formatting and JSON output behavior. In this PHP Array to JSON example, we use the json_encode() function to convert a PHP array to a JSON string with no additional parameters. Below, you'll find more examples demonstrating additional options for converting a PHP array to a JSON string.

How do I encode a PHP object to JSON string?
To encode a PHP object to a JSON formatted string, you can use the json_encode($value, $options, $depth) function. The $value parameter specifies the PHP object to encode. The additional $options parameter provides additional options for JSON encoding. You can control how the PHP object will be encoded into JSON by passing a combination of bitmasks. See the list of supported bitmasks for JSON encoding below. The third optional parameter specifies the maximum recursion depth, in other words, how deep the encoding function will go through the nested PHP objects and convert them to JSON. In this PHP Encode JSON example, we use the json_encode() function to encode a PHP object into its JSON representation. Click Execute to run the PHP JSON Encode Example online and see the result.
How do I decode JSON in PHP?
To decode a JSON string or file in PHP, you can use the json_decode($json, $assoc, $depth, $options) function. The first parameter specifies the string to be decoded. The second optional parameter sets whether the returned object should be converted to an associative array. By default, the json_decode() function recursively decodes JSON with a depth of 512. You can set a different recursion depth in the third parameter. If the JSON cannot be decoded or the nesting depth of the data is greater than the recursion limit, the decode function will return NULL. To encode PHP objects to JSON, you can use the json_encode($value) function. In this PHP Decode JSON example, we use the json_decode() function to convert a JSON string into a PHP object using default values.
