Session Data As Array
Hello guys, please how do I store data as an array inside a session so I can access it accross multiple pages and requests till i unset it or delete it?
Level 4
The push method may be used to push a new value onto a session value that is an array.
The question is: how do i store an array into the session for the first time not update an existing one.
Level 73
The section above in the docs perhaps.

session(['key' => 'value']);
so
session(['cart' => [
'key1' => 'value1',
'key2' => 'value2',
]]);
you know, like when you store an array in a variable....

Can this work: session(['_sent', $request->except('_token')]);
Level 122
why not?
install Laravel Debugbar so that you can see what is in session

Thanks boss, I appreciate, am installing it now. These codes are failing, don't know why:
session()->get('_sent')
session('_sent')
Level 122
failing is not very helpful
It depends where you put them

Am doing that on the view
Level 4
When I dump session()->all() in the controller, I get this:
array:7 [▼
"_token" => "EoUQFjJxDJZLpKF0yohIAFA1ELDl3eqYZCDi08Ve"
"url" => []
"_previous" => array:1 [▶]
"_flash" => array:2 [▶]
"login_web_59ba36addc2b2f9401580f014c7f58ea4e30989d" => 1
0 => "_availableCars"
1 => array:8 [▶]
]
I stored the following in it:
session(['_sent', $request->all()]);
session(['_availableCars', $availableCars]);
Level 122
Why? just pass the data to the view from the controller

]
I stored the following in it:
session(['_sent', $request->all()]);
session(['_availableCars', $availableCars]);
I get only ``_availableCars``` which is not in a good shape or format, I wanted to get:
'_availableCars' => array,
'_sent' => array
That the main issue right now
Level 122
session('_sent', $request->all());
session('_availableCars', $availableCars);
or
session(['_sent' => $request->all()]);
session(['_availableCars' => $availableCars]);

I found out that I was making a mistake, thank you so much, I appreciate:
session(['_sentData' => ['_sent' => $request->all(), '_availableCars' => $availableCars]]);
Level 4
session('_sent', $request->all());
session('_availableCars', $availableCars);
was giving me wrong output, it stores them individually but the second option did the work
session(['_sentData' => ['_sent' => $request->all(), '_availableCars' => $availableCars]]);
or
session(['_sent' => $request->all()]);
session(['_availableCars' => $availableCars]);
Thank you so much, I appreciate
