php foreach array issue

Question

I've got an array which outputs:

stdClass Object ( [firstName] => Rupert [headline] => Managing Director at 
READ Advisors [lastName] => Bowen-Jones [pictureUrl] => 
https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mprx/0_yrLwHnXDTWGSypSo-
B_NHz9hiu52pMpoOAAqHzLxpolpijIEr9zbQvllDTL1xYj6g1FvFtBsywhL )

And I'm trying to pick out each item:

foreach ($user_data as $key => $value) {
echo "<br />" . $value['firstName'] . "<br />";
}

But I'm getting the following errors:

stdClass Object ( [firstName] => Rupert [headline] => Managing Director at 
READ Advisors [lastName] => Bowen-Jones [pictureUrl] => 
https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mprx/0_yrLwHnXDTWGSypSo-

Your help would be much appreciated!! Rupert

it's not a array it is a object so you need to use like $obj->firstName — Sugumar Venkatesan, Apr 20 '17 at 10:38

Assuming $user_data is an array of objects

foreach ($user_data as $key => $value) {
echo "<br />" . $value->firstName . "<br />";
}

That doesn't work... but this does: echo $user_data->firstName; – rupertbj Apr 21 '17 at 10:35
