$url = https://data.aboss.com/v1/agency/1001/101010/events/;
$value = substr($url, strrpos($url, '/') + 1);

    To get the last part from the url, you can use parse_url() and pathinfo() function in PHP. Try following code,

    <?php
$url = "https://data.aboss.com/v1/agency/1001/101010/events/xxxxxx";
$path = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH);
$value = pathinfo($path, PATHINFO_FILENAME);

echo $value;

    There are many ways to do this, the simplest one-liner would be to use explode:

    echo explode("/events/", $url)[1];

    Or if something may come after ‘events/xxxxxx’:

    $url = "https://data.aboss.com/v1/agency/1001/101010/events/1524447/other/123456";
echo explode("/", explode("/events/", $url)[1])[0]; // 1524447

    You can also use a regex with preg_match:

    $url = "https://data.aboss.com/v1/agency/1001/101010/events/1524447/other/123456";
$matches = [];
preg_match("~/events/(d+)~", $url, $matches); // captures digits after "/events/"
echo($matches[1]); // 1524447
