I get a string on request, using guzzle
$import = new ServerInviteClient();
$response = $import->client->request('GET', 'cB2EDPJ9wr');
$items = $response->getBody()->getContents();
dd($items);
$id = 1234567
There are more than 1000+ words in this line and I need to find the given value $id
I tried to search through whereLike, but it didn’t work out, due to the fact that this is not a string in the database, but a query
How do I find the values in this string?
——-Edit
Part of dd($item), I need to find $id = xqc in this line

>Solution :
You could use the native php function strpos. This function returns the index of a substring in a string, or -1 if not found. You will need to validate that the returns value is not -1:
$id = 1234567
$import = new ServerInviteClient();
$response = $import->client->request('GET', 'cB2EDPJ9wr');
$items = $response->getBody()->getContents();
$found = strpos($items, $id) !== -1;
In php 8.0+, you could use the easier str_contains.
However, this is not the best approach. The id could be a found in another property of your items, and the results would be innacurate. A better approach is to decode the body of your response, and validate each items to see if it’s id match.
You have not specified if the body is in JSON format, XML format or any other format, so we can’t give you an exact answer, unfortunatly
