This question is like this one: laravel uuid not showing in query. However, the difference in this question is about that table is a pivot table with
I think this might be what you want:
In your model that defines the BelongsToMany relationship add this property:
protected $casts = ['relationName.pivot.id' => 'string'];
Update

here instead of creating a model class for the pivot:
i didn't test this code so i don't know if it will work or not, this is just an idea
public function activeStatuses()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('ModelName')
->using(class_basename(new class extends \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\Pivot {
protected $casts = ['id' => 'string'];
}));
}
Generally i would prefer to create model for the pivot table or simply use a pivot class
