You need to follow the api requierment which says that the json should 
have an array of json objects, not an array of arrya with array.

Your task is to take the posted value convert it to be in the format 
that the api requiers.

Using classes will make the code more readable and you can break things 
up into smaller chunks when you are writing your code. I think it's 
beter to transform things into a variable and then assing it to the 
object's variable to make the assignment clear and simple. Don't forget 
that the classes can include arrays, but only use those in the places 
where you need it, IMHO it can be sometimes good to iniate the array in 
the class constructor (this only can be done as long as the api don't 
require the array to be omitted if no values).

Don't forget that the company providing the API also has a support team 
which can help, sure  it may come with a cost, depending on the deggree 
of help and how much they think is out of topic. For them it's importnat 
to earn money and if they think helpiing you will give them enough money 
in return, they may help more than they normal support is mandated to do.
