Get result from vTiger webservice - web-services

Question

I am writing a wordpress-plugin which queries data from the vTiger Webservice-API. I read the tutorial (https://wiki.vtiger.com/index.php/Webservices_tutorials#QueryResult) and know the reference (https://wiki.vtiger.com/index.php/Webservice_reference_manual). In the tutorial the use Zend-JSON and HTTP_Client. I use cURL (because it was installed and I thought it was worth a try to use before I install other utilities). It works quite well and I am able to Login to vTiger with our API-User and send the queries. What I receive is something like this:
array(2) {
["success"]=>
bool(true)
["result"]=>
array(4) {
["sessionName"]=>
string(21) "4d103e2058f9d365c22ff"
["userId"]=>
string(4) "19x9"
["version"]=>
string(4) "0.22"
["vtigerVersion"]=>
string(5) "6.5.0"
}
}
Looks very good to me but the Thing I am missing is the actual data from my query.
This is my PHP-Code:
$vtiger->initCurl();
$challengeToken = $vtiger->getChallengeToken();
$sessionId = $vtiger->getSessionId($challengeToken);
$result = $vtiger->query($sessionId, "SELECT firstname FROM 'Contacts' WHERE lastname = 'XXX';");
$wpdb->replace( $wpdb->prefix.$_CONFIG['dbtable'], array( 'id' => 1, 'syncfields' => $result), array('%d', '%s') );
$vtiger->logout($sessionId);
$vtiger->closeCurl();
$result = json_decode($result, true);
return var_dump(($result['success']) ? $result : "Error");
What am I missing to get the firstname (or any other value from the vTiger-DB)?
In the Code I am just writing the Response to the wp-db (extra-Table).
Thanks,
Nico

Vtiger Result Return in array format. you should change your code
$vtiger->initCurl();
$challengeToken = $vtiger->getChallengeToken();
$sessionId = $vtiger->getSessionId($challengeToken);
$result = $vtiger->query($sessionId, "SELECT firstname FROM 'Contacts' WHERE lastname = 'XXX';");
$syncfield = result['0'];
$wpdb->replace( $wpdb->prefix.$_CONFIG['dbtable'], array( 'id' => 1, 'syncfields' => $syncfield), array('%d', '%s') );
$vtiger->logout($sessionId);
$vtiger->closeCurl();
$result = json_decode($result, true);
return var_dump(($result['success']) ? $result : "Error");
