To save an empty string in a database using Laravel, you can simply assign the empty string value to the attribute you want to save before calling the save() method on your model instance.


For example, if you have a User model with a name attribute that can be an empty string, you can save it like this:

1
2
3
$user = new User;
$user->name = ''; // Assign empty string value
$user->save();


Alternatively, you can also use the create() method to create a new model instance with the empty string value directly:

1
2
3
$user = User::create([
    'name' => ''
]);


Make sure that your database column allows for empty strings. By default, most database systems will allow empty strings for text fields.
