How to Get Last Inserted Id in Laravel 10?

In Laravel, you can retrieve the last inserted ID from a database table using the insertGetId() method. This method not only inserts a record into the table but also returns the ID of the last inserted record. Here's an example:

Example 1:

<?php
    
    namespace App\Http\Controllers;
        
    use Illuminate\Http\Request;
    use App\Models\User;
        
    class UserController extends Controller
    {
        /**
         * Display a listing of the resource.
         *
         * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
         */
        public function index(Request $request)
        {
            $id = DB::table('users')->insertGetId([
            'name' => 'Alen',
            'email' => 'alen@example.com',
            'password' => 'secret',
        ]);
        
        // $id will now contain the ID of the last inserted record
              
            dd($id);
        }
    }

Example 2:

<?php
    
    namespace App\Http\Controllers;
        
    use Illuminate\Http\Request;
    use App\Models\User;
        
    class UserController extends Controller
    {
        /**
         * Display a listing of the resource.
         *
         * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
         */
        public function index(Request $request)
        {
            $create = User::create([
                                'name' => 'Alen',
                                'email' => 'alen@example.com',
                                'password' => 'secret'
                            ]);
      
            $id = $create->id;
              
            dd($id);
        }
    }
