Inserting Record into Array Parent

Question

array:18 [▼
      "_token" => "D0bWBXif0Dfhe0X5xecliP3NkRKhvYUmjKUzbw2G"
      "domain" => "example.io"
      "promocode" => "123"
      "firstname" => "Jon"
      "lastname" => "123"
      "email" => "e@outlook.com"
      "phonenumber" => "07572070798"
      "address1" => "2 Wayworld"
      "country" => "UK"
      "city" => "Nr"
      "state" => "Bournemouth"
      "postcode" => "dy1 0tj"
      "password2" => "demo10!"
      "securitycode" => "123"
      "card_number" => "123"
      "card_expiry" => "123"
      "card_cvv2" => "s"
      0 => array:1 [▼
        "clientid" => 94
      ]
    ]

I am trying to add the 'clientid=>94 to the first array, not create a new array inside of that array, I have tried array push and can't get it to work. what should I do?

Its useful if you show us what you did (code), if nothing else it helps explain your problem — RiggsFolly, Feb 28 '21 at 18:41

You can use Laravel helper for that

// Syntax
$array = array_add($array, 'key', 'value');
// code
$array = array_add($response, 'clientid', '94');

Check array_add() in laravel

You are looking for how to flatten your array. You can see here for some methods.

But for your quick need (and in case you don't actually want to flatten everything), you can just do

$firstArray['clientid'] = $firstArray[0]['clientid'];

(Provided that the client id array will always have the index 0)

(Also, $firstArray stands for whatever you call your big array.)

// Syntax
$array = array_add($array, 'key', 'value');
// code
$array = array_add($response, 'clientid', '94');

Was the best solution! I just found this Helper right after seeing this :)
