@PenwellDlamini Give this a shot :)

<?php
$api                =   'https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets';
$token              =   'your-token';

        'header'    =>  "Authorization: Bearer $token"
    ]
];

$context            =   stream_context_create( $options );

$results            =   file_get_contents( $api, false, $context );
$results            =   json_decode( $results );
?>

<table class="table">

That being said, i would definitely recommend using a library, such as :

https://github.com/toin0u/DigitalOceanV2

… or a similar library. It’ll simplify this quite a bit since the library will handle the API, Token, and the method calls.

Please make sure you replace my-token for the $token variable.

thank you, this works. However, how to display droplets that exist in a particular project

What output are you seeing when trying to run the script? Are any errors presented?

Another option for you would be to use a pre-built library for the DO API rather than handling the json directly. This project provides a PHP API client you can use in your scripts.
