Laravel - Find value is available in relationship - laravel

Question

I need to check if the given user_id, location_id, and sub_location_id is belongs to the user on user_locations table. Based on this I need to give login permission to the user for the specific site.
Currently, I have the written code like below. But, don't know how to check the condition.
User::select('id')->with('user_locations:location')->where('user_id',$request->user_id)->get();
I need to put these conditions
is user found and active?
if user active. Then find the given sub location is tagged for the user.
if sub location found, then is the sub location active?
Below are the table structure.
Users Table
id (PK, AI),
user_id (UQ),
password,
status, ("Y"=> Active, "N"=> Inactive)
//other fields
public function user_locations(): HasMany
{
return $this->hasMany(user_locations::class);
}
User_Locations Table
id (PK, AI),
user_id (FK),
location_id (FK),
sub_location_id (FK),
status ("Y"=> Active, "N"=> Inactive)
public function user(): BelongsTo
{
return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
}

I think you need to check relation existing
You can try this way for find user model
User::select('id')
->with('user_locations:location')
->where('user_id',$request->user_id)
->where('status','Y')
->whereHas('user_locations', function ($q) use ($request) {
$q->where('user_locations.user_id', $request->user_id);
$q->where('user_locations.status', 'Y');
})
->get();
If you want just to check user existing you can try this
User::where('user_id',$request->user_id)
->where('status','Y')
->whereHas('user_locations', function ($q) use ($request) {
$q->where('user_locations.user_id', $request->user_id);
$q->where('user_locations.status', 'Y');
})
->exists();
