BadMethodCallException Call to undefined method App\Models\Article::categories()

Question

I'm working on my Laravel project, and have a problem with many-to-many relationship
it throws back the following error:

BadMethodCallException Call to undefined method App\Models\Article::categories()

although I have defined the relationship as categories in my Article model, Laravel solution is:
Bad Method Call Did you mean App\Models\Article::categories()?

Please help me to find out which part of code could lead to this issue

Article Model:

Article Controller:

Category Controller:

The categories method in the Article model is protected. To access it like you intend it needs to be declared as public.

class Article extends Model
{
    public function categories()
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Category::class);
    }
}

Please open a separate question for your problem. It is entirely unrelated to my answer. – Dan Mar 02 '22 at 11:43
