Trying to get property 'name' of non-object error in laravel

here is my function.

public function get(Request $request){
       
        $bike1 = $request->input('bike1');
        $bike2 = $request->input('bike2');
        //dd($bike1);
        return $bike2->name;
    }

When i use the dd function, the result is:

"{"id":1,"created_at":"2020-09-16T12:33:25.000000Z","updated_at":"2020-09-16T12:33:25.000000Z","name":"302r","brand":"benelli","price":800000,"displacement":300,"segment":"300cc","power":"28KW@10000 rpm","torque":"27Nm@9000rpm","fuel_delivery_system":"Efi","abs":"1","cooling_system":"Liquid","weight":155} ◀"

But when I try to access the name property(any) i get the error.

Trying to get property 'name' of non-object

What I might be missing?

You need to decode $bike2 because it's in JSON format, so you can do

$decoded_bike2 = json_decode($request->input('bike2'));

This will return an object

{#1236 ▼
  +"id": 1
  +"created_at": "2020-09-16T12:33:25.000000Z"
  +"updated_at": "2020-09-16T12:33:25.000000Z"
  +"name": "302r"
}

you can access name property like

return $decoded_bike2->name;

If you do

$decoded_bike2 = json_decode($request->input('bike2'), true);

This will return an array

array:4 [▼
  "id" => 1
  "created_at" => "2020-09-16T12:33:25.000000Z"
  "updated_at" => "2020-09-16T12:33:25.000000Z"
  "name" => "302r"
]

You can access key name like

return $decoded_bike2['name'];

It looks like $bike1 is a JSON string, before you can access it's attributes you need to decode it.

$bike1 = json_decode($request->input('bike1'));
return $bike1->name

If that doesn't work $bike1 may be an array, not an object, in that case, this should work

return $bike1['name']
