How to determine session value at Controller

Question

I have set a session value like this at Blade:

@php
if(...){
    Session::put('sent','city')
}else{
    Session::put('sent','country')
}
@endphp

And now, I need to check the sent session value at the Controller but don't know how...

So if you know, please help me out.

Thanks.

Same as you are doing for inserting the value (documentation):

public class SomeController{
  public function some_method(){
    $value = session()->get('sent');
    // or if you are not certain that the value is being set
    $value = session()->get('sent', 'default_value');
  }
}
