Storing the response from an API

May be missing something simple here, but I've written a CURL script to post data to Reed.co.uk (job board). Reed returns the text 'SUCCESS JobID=1' which is to show it is working... which is great.

 

Problem is I want to be able to now use that JobID and put the details into my database after the CURL request is sent, but I can't see how I would store the '1' as a variable? Would this even be possible as it is the Reed server just outputting text?

Worked it out :pirate:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.reed.co.uk/recruiter/HttpManagement.aspx');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
