Storing Array Type into JSON

Tip given by @pratiksh404

If you have input field which takes an array and you have to store it as a JSON, you can use $casts property in your model. Here images is a JSON attribute.

protected $casts = [
'images' => 'array',
];

So you can store it as a JSON, but when retrieved from DB, it can be used as an array.
