How to retrieve JSON data into Laravel and display it's elements on the view?

Question

I installed a package (https://github.com/kirill-latish/laravel-newsapi).

And after setting everything up and also everything in the controller like so:

public function newsapi(){
  $response = NewsAPI::topHeadlines()->get([
        'country' => 'gb',
        'category'=>'sports'
    ]);
  return view('newsapi', compact('response'));
}

and then added into the view:

{{ $response }}

i'm getting a:

htmlspecialchars() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given

How can i work this? And also besides retrieving all the json, how can i display the things normally in a view? such as the title of the news article and url?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Can you give the full line where the $response is inserted in the view? Possibly you need to use {!! $response !!} to escape content. Can you also confirm $response is a string? Looking something like '{"key": "value"}' ?? — ajthinking

{{ }} in blade uses to echo(). so to echo() it should be a 'String' — Tharaka Dilshan

Debug it's structure. Put dd($response); before return statement to see how object's structure looks like (and what keys you need from there). Post structure here too if you have further doubts. — Tpojka

Solved:

In controller:

$response = NewsAPI::topHeadlines()->get([
              'country' => 'us',
              'category'=>'technology'
          ]);
$articles = $response->articles;

In view:

@foreach ($articles as $article)
{{ $article->title }}
@endforeach
