Gravity Forms Remote Web API PHP

I'm trying to get data from gravity forms using the Web API on a different website. I so far have this:

<?php
$field_filters = array ( 
                     array( 
                         'key'      => '50', 
                         'operator' => 'is', 
                         'value' => '2020' 
                     ) 
                 );

$search['field_filters'] = $field_filters;

$search_json = urlencode( json_encode( $search ) );

$base_url = 'http://thewebsite.co.uk/';
$api_key = 'theykey';
$private_key = 'thekey';
$method  = 'GET';
$route = 'forms/1/entries';
$expires = strtotime( '+60 mins' );
$string_to_sign = sprintf( '%s:%s:%s:%s', $api_key, $method, $route, $expires );
$sig = self::calculate_signature( $string_to_sign, $private_key );
//include field filters in search querystring parameter
$url = $base_url . $route . '?api_key=' . $api_key . '&signature=' . $sig . '&expires=' . $expires . '&paging[page_size]=1000&search=' . $search_json;
?>

All I get though is Fatal error: Cannot access self:: when no class scope is active What does this mean? Any help would be great!

self is special keyword which is "used to access properties or methods from inside the class definition" -- http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim.php

First, ensure that the calculate_signature() method is a static method. See http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.php.

I'm guessing it is, if so, then you can access it via it's class name rather than self, i.e. ClassName::calculate_signature().

Instead of self:: you should use real class name like MyClass::. Self will work only inside methods defined in the class.
