STRIPE API Returns Empty Response - stripe-payments

Question

I am using Sripe PHP SDK from this link
When I am trying to use any api of Stripe Payment it gets successful but the response it returns is empty
I am following API Instructions from Strip API Documentations
For example I am using following code snippet to create a payment
$stripe = new \Stripe\StripeClient(
'SECRET_KEY'
);
$stripe->paymentIntents->create([
'amount' => 1200,
'currency' => 'usd',
'payment_method_types' => ['card']
]);
// after successfull payment, you can store payment related information into your database
$this->response([ 'success' =>'1' ,'status' => 'success', 'message' => $stripe], REST_Controller::HTTP_OK);
But it is not returning any response, instead the return object is empty.
Here is the response
{"success":"1","status":"success","message":{}}
It should return an object like this in message
{
"id": "pi_1HkSRrKUkp6sNA1QWNFwUOLd",
"object": "payment_intent",
"amount": 2000,
"amount_capturable": 0,

},
"client_secret": "SECRET_KEY",
"confirmation_method": "automatic",

"currency": "usd",

}
},
"payment_method_types": [
"card"
],
"receipt_email": null,

"setup_future_usage": null,
"shipping": null,
"statement_descriptor": null,
"statement_descriptor_suffix": null,
"status": "requires_payment_method",
"transfer_data": null,
"transfer_group": null
}

Where exactly are you getting that example from? It looks incomplete.
You should just save the output of the API call to some variable, then return the client_secret for example:
$intent = $stripe->paymentIntents->create([
'amount' => 1200,
'currency' => 'usd',
'payment_method_types' => ['card']
]);
$this->response([ 'success' =>'1' ,'status' => 'success', 'message' => $intent->client_secret], REST_Controller::HTTP_OK);
