Get the Last Inserted Id Using Laravel Eloquent

Question

I'm currently using the below code to insert data in a table:

<?php  public function saveDetailsCompany() {     $post = Input::All();      $data = new Company;     $data->nombre = $post['name'];     $data->direccion = $post['address'];     $data->telefono = $post['phone'];     $data->email = $post['email'];     $data->giro = $post['type'];     $data->fecha_registro = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");     $data->fecha_modificacion = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");      if ($data->save()) {         return Response::json(array('success' => true), 200);     } } 

I want to return the last ID inserted but I don't know how to get it.

Kind regards!

Answer 1

After save, $data->id should be the last id inserted.

$data->save(); $data->id; 

Can be used like this.

return Response::json(array('success' => true, 'last_insert_id' => $data->id), 200); 

For updated laravel version try this

return response()->json(array('success' => true, 'last_insert_id' => $data->id), 200);
