Laravel 5: synching an extra field via pivot

Question

User model:

public function positions()
{
 return $this->belongsToMany(\'App\\Position\')->withPivot(\'company_id\')->withTimestamps();

}


        

Answer 1

You are actually pretty close. The required format is:

[
    98 => ['company_id' => 129],
    99 => ['company_id' => 130],
    100 => ['company_id' => 131]
]

This should generate the correct array:

$extra = array_map(function($companyId){
    return ['company_id' => $companyId];
}, $allCompanyIds);

$data = array_combine($allPositionIds, $extra);

$user->positions()->sync($data);
