So basically I am doing this:
JavaScript
x
Laptop::create([
'user_id' => 1,
'name' => $request->name,
'brand' => $request->brand,
'SN' => $request->SN,
'price' => $request->price
]);
How do I save the ID of the newly created resource? Since the ID field is auto incrementing I don’t need to insert it manually. If for example the ID is 47, I need to be able to store the ID locally for use. Like store it in a variable named $ID
This is so I can create meta rows which contain information on the Laptop like Laptop parts. They all need a parent_id which would be the $ID

Answer
JavaScript
$id = Laptop::lastInsertId();
or
JavaScript
$id = Laptop::create([
'user_id' => 1,
'name' => $request->name,
'brand' => $request->brand,
'SN' => $request->SN,
'price' => $request->price
])->id;
