G'day Roboz,

You effectively have arrays nested within arrays, so you'll need some sort of nested loops to read the data.

If you change

foreach my $e (@{$getToysResults->{Toys}{Toy}}){
    print "$e->{ToyLocations}{ToyLocation}{locationName}\n";
}

to

foreach my $e (@{$getToysResults->{Toys}{Toy}}) {
    my $location_array_ref = $e->{ToyLocations}{ToyLocation};
    
    for my $location_array_hash_ref (@$location_array_ref) {
        print $location_array_hash_ref->{locationName}, "\n";
    } 
}

[download]

you'll get the results you're after.

[Aside: On first viewing, I found your naming conventions somewhat counter-intuitive: Toys and ToyLocations are both plural but point to single objects; Toy and ToyLocation are both singular but point to (potentially) multiple objects. In the context of the Dumper output, it's fairly easy to see what's intended; in isolation, those names may easily lead to problems of misinterpretation (particularly if you or someone else revisits the code 12 months down the track).]
