Transform entity/array of entities to JSON

Development
1

Hi,

I have an array of entities (Doctrine objects) and I would like to transform it to JSON by leveraging Mautic loadApiMetada and serialization mechanism that is already provided by Mautic core so I can avoid manually composing the JSON.

Does anyone have any directions for me (has done this before) and knows what combination of services and method I need to use to get his?

Thanks.
Regards, M.

Update:

I am able to serialize the data using the follwoing line:

$this->webhookModel->serializeData($records);

The thing is that I would like to exclude some fields as they are not relevant for my situation. And I know this is possible to do because api response returns response without those fields.

I solved it by using:

use Mautic\ApiBundle\Serializer\Exclusion\FieldExclusionStrategy;
$this->webhookModel->serializeData($records, null, [
            new FieldExclusionStrategy([
                'Changes',
                'PastChanges'
            ], 0)
        ]);

I simply excluded the fields I did not want in JSON.
