Getting HTTP Response value on submission page

I have a basic form that POSTs to a url that speaks to an API. The API then sends back a response that looks like this:
{"url":"/hospitals/3780/appointments/70132614/confirmation?reservation_code=1557959700"}

I just need to grab the URL response value, do some parsing and use in CURL.

How do you grab this from the HTTP Response? I've searched for days. No luck.

Thanks!

It is JSON, so it should be easy to parse. – Jay Blanchard May 15 '19 at 17:07
How would I grab the values from the HTTP Response? I'm new to that piece of it. – Ryan Brackett May 15 '19 at 17:07
You would use `json_decode()` which would make an array. From there `$my_variable['url']` would contain the result. – Jay Blanchard May 15 '19 at 17:10
Once I get a response on the page, I don't know how to use json_decode() to grab that response data from the header. I typically only work with the DOM, so grabbing and manipulating data in the header is super new to me. Thanks for the help, Jay! – Ryan Brackett May 16 '19 at 13:27
