Search array returning multiple values

Question

I'm searching a database that returns multiple entries but I'm not sure how to then query the returned data?

The search can return up to 20 results (although this is unlikely) an example of the returned array is as follows:

RESPONSE: relationships/search Array
(
    [0] => stdClass Object
        (
            [relationship_id] => 1487400
            [legal_form] => Sole Trader
            [display_name] => Jones Jones t/a 
            [relationship_status] => Prospect: Hot
            [telephone_number] => 02075387446
            [telephone_number_2] => 
            [mobile_number] => 
            [email_address] => smith@smith.com
            [date_of_birth] => 
            [registration_number] => 
            [vat_registration_number] => 
            [postcode] => 
            [creation_date] => 2017-09-14
        )

    [1] => stdClass Object
        (
            [relationship_id] => 1487399
            [legal_form] => Sole Trader
            [display_name] => Smith Smith t/a 
            [relationship_status] => Prospect: Hot
            [telephone_number] => 02087653458
            [telephone_number_2] => 
            [mobile_number] => 
            [email_address] => smith@smith.com
            [date_of_birth] => 
            [registration_number] => 
            [vat_registration_number] => 
            [postcode] => 
            [creation_date] => 2017-09-14
        )

)

Could anyone offer any advice?

EDIT

I feel I'm being a bit silly as I cant work out what I need to do to access the objects within each key?

Heres my code:

$relationship = postRequest('relationships/search', array('mobile_number' => $phone, 'email_address'=>$email, 'return_multiple_flag'=>Y));

     if(isset($relationship->relationship_id))
         foreach ($relationship as $object) {
             if($object->object_property == $phone && $email && $email != 'none@none.com'){
                return $relationship->relationship_id;
             }elseif($object->object_property == $phone){
                return $relationship->relationship_id;
             }elseif($object->object_property == $email && $email != 'none@none.com'){
                return $relationship->relationship_id; };
    };

I know the foreach is wrong.

You have an array of stdClass objects.

You can access them through the numerical key, starting with 0:

$obj = $array[0]; // First element in the array

Or, you can loop through them:

foreach ($array as $obj) {
    // code here
}

You can access properties of the object using the -> operator:

$id = $obj->relationship_id;

Hope this helps!
