Fetching Custom Customer Attributes Magento 2

Question

I am trying to fetch a custom attribute value of a customer in magento 2 but I am unable to fetch it

I am using \Magento\Customer\Api\CustomerRepositoryInterface class to fetch the custom customer attribute of a customer

I have tried this

 $customers = $this->customerRepositoryInterface->getById(2);
 print_r($customers->getCustomAttributes('enable_alerts'));

This returns

Array (
 [enable_alerts] => Magento\Framework\Api\AttributeValue Object
 (
 [_data:protected] => Array
 (
 [attribute_code] => enable_alerts
 [value] => 1
 )
 )
)

But I need only value of enable_alerts. What I am doing wrong here Is there any other way of fetching customers attribute value I have tried multiple codes and searched every thing!

Answer 1

Try This :-

print_r($customers->getCustomAttributes('enable_alerts')->getValue());
