Combine with() and withInput() during redirection - coderscvoen - 06-18-2022

I have a form which after submission, i would like to redirect back with a custom message and old inputs. The code below does the redirection unfortunately it does not return with the old data.

PHP Code:
return redirect()->back()->with("failed", "All fields are required!")->withInput(); 

So i was wondering if it is possible to append withInput to with.
Thanks

This is the best way

PHP Code:
return redirect()->back()->withInput()->with("failed", "All fields are required!"); 

Code:
<input type="email" name="data" value="<?= old('data') ?>">

If you use the form helper the old is built into it.

This is the best way, is the way that Myth/Auth does it.
