How to Save batch users in laravel 8.0? - php

Question

I created a form, where one can add or remove entries and save all entries at once.
Now the form only saves the last entry. Scripts to add and remove record, works pretty well.
How can i make sure all the entries are saved to the db. I have been looking for a solution but can't find any.
Controller
`public function saveGroupDelegateData(Request $request ){
foreach ($request -> (*.lastIndex) as $key => $lastIndex) {
$SaveAttendees = Attendees::create([
'title' => $request->title[$lastIndex],
'name' => $request->name[$lastIndex],
'email' => $request->email[$lastIndex],
'company' => $request->company[$lastIndex],
'phone_number' => $request->phone_number[$lastIndex],
'job_title' => $request->job_title[$lastIndex],
'event_role' => $request->event_role[$lastIndex],
'tour' => $request->tour[$lastIndex],
'tour_location' => $request->tour_location[$lastIndex]
]);
}}`
Viewblade
`<form action="/SaveGroupAttendees" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">

Answer 1

i think you can change the name of the input element. you can change it to this:
<input type="text" required="required" placeholder="title" name="data[lastIndex][title]">
and in controller you can looping the data.
foreach($request->data as $value) {
Attendees::create([
'title' => $value['title']
]);
}
