PHP and Adobe Target Delivery API

[PedroFi]

Hello!

I am trying to implement the Adobe Target Delivery API using PHP code in order to get data about our current AB test experiences. This is what my request looks like:

$client = new Client();

$url = self::ADOBE_API_URL . '?client=' . self::ADOBE_CLIENT_ID . '&sessionId=' . self::ADOBE_SESSION_ID;

$headers = array();
$data = array();
$mboxes = array();
$request_data = array();

$mboxes[0]['name'] = self::ADOBE_TARGET_MBOX_SCOPE1;
$mboxes[0]['index'] = 1;
$mboxes[1]['name'] = self::ADOBE_TARGET_MBOX_SCOPE2;
$mboxes[1]['index'] = 2;
      
$headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/json';
$headers['cache-control'] = 'no-cache';

$data['context']['channel'] = self::ADOBE_CONTEXT_CHANNEL;
$data['property']['token'] = self::ADOBE_PROPERTY_TOKEN;
$data['prefetch']['mboxes'] = $mboxes;
$data['execute']['mboxes'] = $mboxes;

$request_data['headers'] = $headers;
$request_data['json'] = $data;

$response = $client->request( 'POST', $url, $request_data );
$response_data = json_decode( $response->getBody(), true );
return $response_data;

And this is the response I obtain. As you can see, the "options" property containing data about the experiences is missing:

Array
(
    [status] => 200
    [requestId] => ID
    [client] => CLIENT_NAME
    [id] => Array
        (
            [tntId] => TNT_ID
        )

    [edgeHost] => mboxedge37.tt.omtrdc.net
    [prefetch] => Array
        (
            [mboxes] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Array
                        (
                            [index] => 1
                            [name] => self::ADOBE_TARGET_MBOX_SCOPE1
                            [state] => STATE
                        )

                    [1] => Array
                        (
                            [index] => 2
                            [name] => self::ADOBE_TARGET_MBOX_SCOPE2
                            [state] => STATE
                        )

                )

        )

    [telemetryServerToken] => TELEMETRY_TOKEN
    [execute] => Array
        (
            [mboxes] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Array
                        (
                            [index] => 1
                            [name] => self::ADOBE_TARGET_MBOX_SCOPE1
                        )

                    [1] => Array
                        (
                            [index] => 2
                            [name] => self::ADOBE_TARGET_MBOX_SCOPE2
                        )

                )

        )

)

What am I possibly doing wrong?

It's the same idea as this serverState example, with a hybrid implementation, where you have the option to pre-fetch and cache many different offers/activities. That means you can then render them from the cache instead of having to make another network request to Target.
