session()->push('key','value');

Retrieving a value from the session is also easy like store like below you can retrieve the specific value a session
session()->get('key');
You can also retrieve all the session values by using the all() method.
session()->all();
You can also check if an item exists in the session and then you can fetch that, for that you have to use has() method.
if (session()->has('key')) {
// perform your logics here
}

If you want to regenerate all the IDs for the session, you can use the regenerate() method.
session()->regenerate();
Deleting Session Values
