I'm trying to join two queries with this statement:
$item = Category::where('type', $item)
->leftJoin('inventory', 'inventory.id', '=', 'categories.id')
->get();
The problem is that if there is no inventory id value equal to the category id field, the query returns the id as NULL. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can solve it? Thanks in advance!

It does the same thing. Is it possible to use a basic join to return the result as not null?

Is it returning the category id as null or the inventory id as null?
