You are actually trying to access the object as array.

I can guess you are having problem when you are using json_decode which is returning an object and inside the foreach loop you are trying to access it like an associative array.

Passing the second argument as true to json_decode force it to return associative array.

Make the below change.

Change your this code line

$items = json_decode($contents);

To

$items = json_decode($contents, true);
