Protected property from request

I have an Axios post request which sends a phone number to my Laravel backend. It was working fine until I deleted a column in my database. It still returns a 201 but the value isn't updated. When I dd() the request, it's now a protected property instead of how it was before:

#json: Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\ParameterBag {#35
    #parameters: array:1 [
      "field" => array:2 [
        "phone_number" => "079600565197"
        "id" => 35
      ]
    ]
  }

So whereas before I could do:

$account->phone_number = $request->get('phone_number');
$account->save();

All it saves is null.

When I check the request in devtools it looks fine:

field: {phone_number: "07960065197", id: 35}

But I can't access the data inside field.

Is there a way I can either convert this back to how it was before, or access the nested data directly? Any tips would be a great help.

You are nesting your 'phone_number' attribute inside the 'field' attribute.

To retrieve nested attributes from your request do this:

$request->input('field.phone_number')
