Creating appropriate array from request values in laravel controller

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to properly structure request data into an array in my controller. I have 3 values coming from my http request and I'm trying to get two of them into a specific array structure. My request values are dumping so they are definitely there.

Here's my controller where I"m putting them into an array:

 $subItems = array("title" => $request->itemTitle, "description" => $request->itemDesc);

But it's failing because the function I'm calling with the array $subItems is expecting an array structure where it can get the paramaters by the index of title and description like this:

 [ $subtask['title'], $subtask['description']]

How do I need to change my controller/array code to accomplish this?

You can use like this $subItems['title'] = $request->itemTitle ; After you cant get values using its key. In your question you add values to $subItems but you getting values from $subtask . Please check that one also. — G.D Udara Lahiru Sampath

This is weird. What does var_dump($subItems) give you inside the function you are calling? — mighty_dev

You can do it like below

$subItems = [];
$subItems['title'] = $request->itemTitle;
$subItems['description'] = $request->itemDesc;
