How to update a one-to-many relationship in Laravel?

Update data using the user form.

1- Using push method.

  • First go to routes/web.php file and modify this route: 
Route::get('/users/update', method () {
    $user = User::with('posts')->find(1);
    $post = $user->posts()->whereId(1)->first();
    $post->title = 'Post title 1 updated';
    $post->push();
    return response()->json($user);
});

  • We open the browser and go to the new URL http://127.0.0.1:8000/users/update to find that the post has been updated successfully.
