How to get response from Guzzle Http in PHP

Question

$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client();
$response = $client->request('GET', 'http://www.conxn.co.in/CoxnsvcA.svc/Login');
dd($response);

I'm able to get something like this:

But while doing $response->getBody(); I'm unbale to get the response. when I do dd($response->getBody() I'm getting:

In postman it is showing something like this:

Help me out with this.

Thanks.

Have you tried (string) $response->getBody()? The method will return a stream, which requires special handling depending on what you are trying to do. Maybe you can show a larger part of the code? For example what do you get get instead of the response data when you call $response->getBody()? — dbrumann

@dbrumann It is showing stream sets but I can't find the response where I can retrieve. Give me 2 mins I'll update the question with output value. — rajesh

Seems there is an error. In postman result show there is an error with parameter. — Ulrich Dohou

As I said, the body is a stream. When you do (string) $response->getBody() it will make it a regular string. You could also use Guzzle's helper method $data = $response->json(); to get the data from the response already parsed, when you know it's json — dbrumann

This should work:

$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client();
$response = $client->request('GET','http://www.conxn.co.in/CoxnsvcA.svc/Login');

$response_body = json_decode($response->getBody());

This should work for you.

$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client();

$response = $client->request("GET", "http://www.googleapi.com", ['headers' => ['Accept' => 'application/json']]); 

$response_data = json_decode((string) $response->getBody(), true);

return collect($response_data);
