but i want remove the whole data of that guy whose status is Archived. So can any one tell me how can i do this.

Answer 1

One easy way to do this is to use array_filter .

You'll need to first convert your json to an array:

$users = json_decode($json, true);

Now use filter the array of users, remove those with a status of Archived:

$active = array_filter($users, function($user) {
   return $user['status'] != 'Archived';
});

Now $active will be an array of users that did not have a status of Archived.

If you need the results back in json:

$json = json_encode($active);

Here's a working example: https://3v4l.org/5KMaC

Answer 2

you can use given code, it is working properly:-

$users = json_decode($json, true);
  $count=count($users);
  for($i=0; $i<$count; $i++)
  {
      if($users->status=="Archived")
      {
         print_r($users); 
      }
  }
