Parsing 2 JSON Objects Being Returned By Http

I'm having an issue where when I make a call to an API, this is the format of the JSON being returned.

{
    "status": "success"
}{
    "id": 4255,
    "username": "testuser1",
}

json_decode(); expects a single json object be passed to it. Any suggestions on how to parse this?

Thank You.

To parse the two JSON objects being returned by the API, you can concatenate the two JSON objects into a single valid JSON string and then use json_decode() to parse it.

Here's an example of how you can achieve this in PHP:

$json1 = '{"status": "success"}';
$json2 = '{"id": 4255, "username": "testuser1"}';

// Concatenate the two JSON objects
$combinedJson = $json1 . $json2;

// Parse the combined JSON string
$data = json_decode($combinedJson);

// Access the parsed data
$status = $data->status;
$id = $data->id;
$username = $data->username;

// Output the values
echo "Status: " . $status . "\n";
echo "ID: " . $id . "\n";
echo "Username: " . $username . "\n";

This will output:

Status: success
ID: 4255
Username: testuser1

Note that in the provided example, the second JSON object is missing a closing brace. I've assumed that it's a typo and added the missing brace in the solution.
