PHP JSON loop store data in MySQL

Question

I have managed to create a JSON code for data I retrieved from my API source, however dont know how to store the retrieved data (a more cleaner code to quickly manage and store the data)

Here is my Code that I use to retrieve the API data: (Working)

// VERIFY IF ID IS VALID USING API
$url = $apiURL.$apiKey.$apiSer.$apiJsn.$id;
$json = file_get_contents($url);
$data = json_decode($json);
$verify = $data->{'Response'};

        // VERIFY IF RESPONSE IS TRUE
        if ($verify == 'True') {

        // LOOP
        foreach ($data as $key => $jsons) { 
            // echo $jsons.'<br>'; 

        // HERE I NEED HELP TO STORE THE DATA TO MYSQL!!!

        }
        } else {

            // RETURN ERROR
            echo 'RESPONSE IS FALSE';
        }
}

JSON Code from API:

{"Title":"Title Name",
 "Name":"User Name",
 "Surname":"User Surname",
 "Email":"User Email",
 .....................}

What I normally would do to store the data:

$query = dbConnect()->prepare("INSERT INTO _users (name, surname, email, ....) VALUES (:1, :2, :3,....)");
    $query->bindParam(':1', $name);
    $query->bindParam(':2', $surname);
    $query->bindParam(':3', $email);
    ....

    if($query->execute()){
        echo "<div class='alert alert-success' align='center'>
                            <strong>Product has been created!</strong>
              </div>";
    }   

The values from the JSON API is the same as the database structure.

Is there a better way to import the data to my database?

Firstly change,

$data = json_decode($json);

to,

$data = json_decode($json, true);

to return the JSON data as an associative array then assuming you only have one row,

   /** Prepare query before the loop not in the loop... **/ 
    foreach ($data as $key => $value) { 
        /** BIND HERE - $key => Title, Name, Surname and Email **/
    }

    /** Execute here... **/
    $stmt->execute();

otherwise you'd execute within the foreach loop.
