How do I get the last "ID" (row) created after using the "channel_form_submit_entry_end" hook? Can the hook send me the "ID"? EE5

Are you looking for the ID of the entry which was just created by the channel form submission? – Derek Hogue♦ Dec 4 '18 at 17:40

Yes. The ID of the entry created by the channel form submission. – James Raffield Dec 4 '18 at 19:35
At the end of hook "channel_form_submit_entry_end" it is using the Channel Form Class so $obj->entry['entry_id'] a class property which is not available.
Good news is you can use the method $obj->entry('entry_id') to retrieve the entry which is one of available methods from Channel_form_lib
If you do a dump of the argument which that hooks accepts, you'll see it should contains the entry_id. I can't recall exactly what the structure looks like (it might just be $obj->entry_id or $obj['entry_id']), but do this to find out:
function channel_form_submit_entry_end($obj)
{
exit(var_dump($obj));
}

I used my_function($obj){ exit(var_dump($obj)); } But the entry_id is not there or set – James Raffield Dec 5 '18 at 20:32

Should be
$obj->entry['entry_id']... is the submission completing successfully (showing up in the database)? – Derek Hogue♦ Dec 6 '18 at 13:17 -

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Cannot use object of type EllisLab\ExpressionEngine\Model\Channel\ChannelEntry this is the error I get when I try to call $ojb->entry['entry_id'] – James Raffield Dec 11 '18 at 14:22
