PHP/Laravel add array element to a multi-level associative array

Question

I have a requirement to add an element to a PHP array. I would like to know whether I have to iterate over all the elements and add it OR do I have a shortcut to get this done?

[
  "A": ["id": 12, "name": "test1"],
  "B": ["id": 13, "name": "test2"]
]

I have to add "cut_id": 1 to each array and it should become:

[
  "A": ["id": 12, "name": "test1", "cut_id": 1],
  "B": ["id": 13, "name": "test2", "cut_id": 1]
]

I'd say you need to iterate. foreach() and array_push() should do the trick. — Peter Kraume

you can use data_fill helper funcation

    $data = [
        "A" => ["id" => 12, "name" => "test1"],
        "B" => ["id" => 13, "name" => "test2"]
    ];
    data_fill($data, '*.cut_id', 1);

    dd($data);
