Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string error

Question

I have the following string:

{\"Coords\":[{\"Accuracy\":\"65\",\"Latitude\":\"53.277720488429026\",\"Longitude\":\"-9.012038778269686\",\"Timestamp\":\"Fri J         


        

Answer 1

Instead of

 $decoded_traces=json_decode($traces);
 echo $decoded_traces;

try

$decoded_traces=json_decode($traces, true);
print_r $decoded_traces;
