Why does the response I'm getting not reflect the documentation's format? about cloudinary_php HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @VaelVictus,

Thanks for your post.

It looks like you're inspecting the returned object which contains the entire response, hence why you are getting back headers etc. The JSON sample response from the documentation is just the response body for a direct API call (e.g. via cURL) - but when using the SDKs, they return an object wrapping the entire response.

The actual upload response you'll receive will match the documentation for successful requests and ones that are not 'async' in which case you'll get a 'Pending' response. Therefore, if you capture the response for a successful upload in a variable and you try to access the relevant returned fields like the sample response lists, like public_id or secure_url, then you should be able to do so. For example, you could try:

$res = $cloudinary->upload($file_name, ['upload_preset' => 'my_preset']);
echo $res["public_id"] . "\n";

Thanks for the quick reply Aleksandar, I'm happy to say I got it working as you described! I wouldn't have expected PHP to work this way, but there it is.

$info = $cloudinary->upload($file_name, ['upload_preset' => 'cow_preset']);
echo $info['url'];

If you don't mind, I'm curious about how it returns the 'url' index if it's not visible when eg: dump()ing it in Laravel; maybe my understanding of PHP's OOP is limited.

You're welcome @VaelVictus.

Do you have a copy of the entire object you're dumping? I ask because the "url" and all other sample response fields should be in the returned object.

When you try to access a field like "url" or "public_id" it'll look it up under the "storage" ArrayObject where they will be stored.

If you want to access the "headers" part of the response you could get them returned by running: $info->headers

Ah, I appreciate the explanation. When I dumped it, I saw storage but tried to access it as if it were a public index on the returned object, not knowing it's something built into PHP and I simply had to access it without the index.

Just to follow up on this issue, on the searchApi() the results returned are as follows, not what is expected based on the documentation:

Cloudinary\Api\ApiResponse {#454 ▼ +rateLimitResetAt: 1657566000 +rateLimitAllowed: 500 +rateLimitRemaining: 485 +headers: array:15 [▶] flag::STD_PROP_LIST: false flag::ARRAY_AS_PROPS: false iteratorClass: "ArrayIterator" }
