How to get the last inserted model

[jishcem]

I am importing a CSV with OnEachRow and in the onRow function, I have the models getting inserted. But, I want to do something like this

[public function onRow(Row $row)
{
$data = $row->toArray();

try {
    if ($data['is_variant']) {
        $product = Product::find($this->lastInsertedProduct->id);
        $product->options()->sync($data['options']);
    } else {
        $this->lastInsertedProduct = Product::create($data);
    }
    $this->importedCount++;
} catch (QueryException | \Exception $e) {
    session()->push('importer_errors', $row->getIndex());
}

}](url)

When I use breakpoint in the line $this->lastInsertedProduct = Product::create($data); I get the model in the debugger, but, the model is not inserted in the database. Is it not saving when the statement Product::create($data); is called ?

I want to get the last inserted model instance and do something with it ( update its relations data )

Any idea what is wrong here ?

Because there's a database transaction around it. It will only be saved to the database when the transaction is commited. https://medium.com/@radicalloop/database-transactions-in-laravel-daa1b9751872#:~:text=%E2%80%9CTransactions%E2%80%9D%20gives%20us%20power%20to,very%20easy%20API%20for%20Transaction.&text=Here%20is%20a%20simple%20example%20showing%20how%20to%20use%20Transactions%20in%20Laravel.
