auth::id(); returns 'null' or auth::check(); returns 'false'

Question

I have tried different methods discussed in here but not successful to my problem. Assumptions:

1. Failure to group routes under the same middleware group.
2. Get all the sessions required from web middleware and replace them into global middleware But I don't know how? help, please.

Controller

class StarterController extends Controller
{
   public function index()
   {
     $id = Auth::check();
     dd($id);
   }
}

Route

Route::get('/auth.register', 'AuthController@getRegister')->name('auth')->middleware('guest');
Route::get('/auth.login', 'AuthController@getLogin')->name('auth')->middleware('guest');

Answer 1

You have to call user helper function first :

Auth::user()->id;
