Insert Array Data from File into MYSQL using PHP

I am having trouble trying to connect to a MySQL DB to insert certain JSON values from a .json file.

I am still fairly new to working with data, connecting to a DB via PHP and such.

The db is in the same cpanel/host/server as where this file is found. Please let me know if I need to change, add or improve anything.

What I am trying to do, is read the file.json and then insert those entries into a remote DB that is on my server.

What I am looking for is how to insert these values into insert the data into a MYSQL, not print it on a page.

This question doesn't answer my question: How to extract and access data from JSON with PHP?

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Insert Data into DB</h1>
<?php
   
$username = "user";
$password = "pass";


// Create connection
$con = new PDO('mysql:host=host;dbname=DBNAME', $username, $password);
   

    //read the json file contents
    $jsondata = file_get_contents('http://path.to.file.com/file.json');
    
   
    
    //convert json object to php associative array
    $data = json_decode($jsondata, true);
    
    foreach ($data as $jsons)
     {
          $id = null;
    $fname = null;
    $lname = null;
    $email = null;
    $phone = null;
    $date = null;
    $state = null;
    
    foreach($jsons as $key => $value)
     {
         if($key == 'id') {
             $id = $value;
         }
         
          if($key == 'date_created') {
             $date = $value;
         }
         
          if($key == '1') {
             $email = $value;
         }
         
          if($key == '3.3') {
             $fname = $value;
         }
         
          if($key == '3.6') {
             $lname = $value;
         }
         
         if($key == '5') {
             $phone = $value;
         }
         
         if($key == '6') {
             $state = $value;
         }
    
     }
    //insert into mysql table
    $sql = "INSERT INTO contact(id, date, first, last, phone, email, state)
    VALUES('$id', '$date', '$fname', '$lname', '$phone', '$email', '$state')";
    if(!mysql_query($sql,$con))
    {
        die('Error : ' . mysql_error());
    }
    }
?>
