Please some help trying to access ROLES

Please community help with this code, On the controller am sending this data

  public function index()
  {
    $users = User::all();
    return view('/user.index', compact('users'));
  }

On the view I cant call the roles with this code

{{ $user->roles->first()->id }}

// got this error => Trying to get property of non-object I got to suspend it

        @foreach($users as $user)
        <tr>
            <td>{{$user->id}}</td>
            <td>{{$user->name}}</td>
            <td>{{$user->email}}</td>
            {{-- <td>{{$user->roles->first()->name}}</td> --}}
            {{ $user->roles->first()->id }}
            <td><a href="/user/{{$user->id}}"><i class="fas fa-eye"></i> Ingresar</a></td>
            @endforeach

BUT when I call that same last code on the SHOW view it runs

$user->roles->first()->id

how i can call it? the ROLES...

am calling them this way on the class User extends Authenticatable

    public function roles()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Role::class); // nombre del modelo
    }

thanks to the laravel community

So the error says that you are trying to use the name when the roles return null for some reason. So is there a user that doesn't have a role in the database assigned? Because first() returns null if there are no roles for a user.

show works because that user has a role, but when you list all the users it can fail on any user that doesn't have a role.

So you can query the users that have at least one role maybe

$users = User::whereHas('roles')->with('roles')->get();
