Get the Last Inserted Id Using Laravel Eloquent

After save, $data->id should be the last id inserted.

$data->save();
$data->id;

Can be used like this.

return Response::json(array('success' => true, 'last_insert_id' => $data->id), 200);

For updated laravel version try this

return response()->json(array('success' => true, 'last_insert_id' => $data->id), 200);
