                               $new = [];
                                 for($i=0 ; $i < count($data)-1 ; $i++)
                                {
                                  if(count($data[$i]['events']) > 0)
                                  {
                                    
                                    $new[] = $data[$i]['events'];
                                   
                                  }
                                  
                                }
                                print_r ($new);

But it give me an error : Cannot use object of type IlluminateHttpJsonResponse as array

Can anyone please help me to resovle the issue?

Answer

You need to decode $data[0] not $data since you’re doing

$data[] =

same for loop ,you should do

if(count($data[0][$i]['events']) > 0)
