Laravel how to insert data into intermediate table?

Question

Laravel

When linking many to many, you need to insert data into 2 tables at once, are there any convenient ways in Laravel?
Like this

$user->roles()->create($dataNewRole, dataNewPivot);

Answer 1

The second argument is an array of fields that is inserted into pivot. Here is an example from my code:

$lead->contacts()->save($contactModel, ['is_main' => array_get($contact, 'is_main', false), 'is_lpr' => array_get($contact, 'is_lpr', false)]);
