I have an article and I want to after save, get in session current id of article for next page notes.
use Session;
public function store(Request $request)
{
$article = new Article($request->all());
$article->user_id = auth()->user()->id;
$article->title = $request->title;
$article->body = $request->body;
$article->id = $request->session()->get('id');
$article->description = $request->description;
$article->save();
return redirect()->route('notes.index')->with('id', $request->id);
}
In notes page has a input hidden for get session of article id.
<input type="hidden" class="form-control" value="{{ Session::get('id') }}" name="id" id="id">
If you want to store the ID of the newly saved article in the session, you should do that as follows in your controller:
public function store()
{
// ...
$article->save();
session(['article_id' => $article->id]);
return redirect()->route('notes.index')->with('id', $request->id);
}
@JOHNBRAUN - What is this line?
session(['article_id' => $article_id]);
@IRANKHOSRAVI - That line of code stores the id of the saved article to the article_id key in the session. Then you can grab the id from the session using session()->get(‘article_id’)
@JOHNBRAUN - We do not have article_id in database.
@JOHNBRAUN - See my last answer here.

It was already explained to OP about session in that post.
We do not have article_id in database.
It was an example of session usage, not to copy and paste.
@IRANKHOSRAVI - @jlrdw I see
@irankhosravi For your specific example it would be
session(['id' => $article->id]);
actually, its not a relation, so
session(['id' => $article->id]);
But honestly, this code is as bad as your other, identical question about Order
@jlrdw its not storage permissions. he's writing null into session. There is no model attribute article_id
@SNAPEY - I see I've messed that up in my comments as well, I meant $article->id where I said $article_id (was typing on mobile when I replied). I've updated my comments above.
