Convert json string containing utf-8 symbols to a php array

I'm trying to convert a json string containing utf-8 symbols to a php array.

$jsonString = '{"loginid" : "90", "username" : "\U0437\U0430\U043c\U043a\U0435"}';

$array = json_decode($jsonString,true);

Unfortunately json_decode returns null.

Where is my mistake?

Use \u instead of \U. Try this:

$jsonString = '{"loginid" : "90", "username" : "\u0437\u0430\u043c\u043a\u0435"}';

$array = json_decode($jsonString,true);

Try escaping your slashes.

<?php

$jsonString = '{"loginid" : "90", "username" : "\\\U0430"}';

$array = json_decode($jsonString, true);

print "<PRE><FONT COLOR=ORANGE>"; print_r($array); print "</FONT></PRE>";
