$data = $json->index('items')->get();
```

### Updating Data

[](#updating-data)

To update specific fields where a condition is met:

```
$update = $json->index('items')->update(
    ['id', '3'], // Condition: WHERE id = 3
    [
        ['unitprice' => '224.50'],
        ['color' => '#fff']
    ]
);
```

### Adding Data
