How to validate an ID which should be in given array - Laravel

Question

I have an array which is

array (
  0 => 1,
  1 => 7,
  2 => 11,
  3 => 8,
  4 => 5,
) 

Now I want to validate a field status which should be in the given list.

$validation = Validator::make($req->all(),[
    'status.*.id' => 'required'
]);

How can I validate the status? Can anyone suggest any solution? Thank You.

Laravel has an option to validate a value compare to a given array of data:

//At the top of your class add the correct Rule namespace.

use Illuminate\Validation\Rule;

$yourarray = [
    0 => 1,
    1 => 7,
    2 => 11,
    3 => 8,
    4 => 5,
];

$validation = Validator::make($req->all(),[
    'status.*.id' => ['required',Rule::in($yourarray)]
]);
