Get the id of the last saved entry

Question

Save gives only true or false.

$query = (new Item())->fill([
    'first'=>$first,
    'second'=>$second
])->save();
$lastInsertId = $query->id;
//does not work...
return ['status'=>true];

Answer 1

Use createfunction instead.

$item = Item::create([
    'first' => $first,
    'second' => $second
]);

$id = $item->id;
