Passing API data to view Laravel

Question

I can't figure out why my data is not being passed to View I get the message Undefined variable: project

Can someone help identify where i am going wrong?

when i return $project->name straight from the controller it displays the response, however fails to pass to view.

Here is my controller function:

public function getApi(){

   $client = new Client();
     $response = $client->get('https://play.geokey.org.uk/api/projects/77');

        $body = $response->getBody()->getContents();
         $project = json_decode($body);

    return view ('response', compact($project));


}

And here is my View:

<h1>Welcome</h1>

<table class="table table-bordered">
    <tr>
        <th>Project Name</th>
        <th>Date of Creation</th>
        <th>Contribution Total</th>
    </tr>

    <tr>
        <td>{{$project->name}}</td>
    </tr>


</table>

Instead of:

return view ('response', compact($project));

Type

return view ('response', compact('project'));
