Hi Garvit,

I am normally using the standard PHP function json_encode($array);

For example you can do this in an Action inside your Controller:

$members = $this->memberRepository->findByProperty($property)->toArray();
return json_encode($members);

But I'm trying to imagine how your ajax success function is going to 
look when you need to retrieve all the information in all objects from 
the json response above....

If you know what "member" information you need, you can also do the 
following:

$memberArray = array();

$members = $this->memberRepository->findByProperty($property);

if (count($members) > 0) {
	foreach($members AS $member) {
		$memberArray['firstName'] $member->getName()->getFirstName();				
		$memberArray['lastName'] = $member->getName()->getLastName();
		...
		...
		
	}
}

return json_encode($memberArray);
