Welcome. Either `$contact_methods[]` or `contact_methods()`. It also looks like you're missing `.'` somewhere after `contact_methods[]` — brombeer, Oct 08 '18 at 08:31

You have a quote issue. Use baskslash before the single quote of the jq filter:

$cm_json = exec('curl -H "Accept: application/vnd.pagerduty+json;version=2" -H "Authorization: Token token="XXXXXXX" -X GET -G  "https://api.pagerduty.com/users/'.$user_id.'/contact_methods/" | jq \'.contact_methods[] | select(.label == "Mobile") | .address\'');

When the answer is "you have a quote issue", there is no need to answer. Just leave a comment under the question and flag/vote to close as Off-topic: Typo. This page will be quickly scrubbed from the site (as will any upvote points you receive) because this page is completely useless to researchers.See: [Should one advise on off topic questions?](//meta.stackoverflow.com/q/276572/1768232). – John Conde Oct 08 '18 at 11:33
