Try This To insert multiple images
public function singalprojectaction(Request $request)
{
$input=$request->all();
$datas = [];
$result = [];
if ($request->hasfile('images')) {
foreach ($request->file('images') as $key => $file) {
$name = $file->getClientOriginalName();
$file->move(public_path() . '/projects/', $name);
$datas[$key] = $name;
}
}
$query=DB::table('single_portfolio')->insert( [
'Project_name' =>$input['project_name'],
'Client_Name' =>$input['Client_name'],
'Completion_date' =>$input['Completion_date'],
'Duration' =>$input['Duration'],
'project_image_one'=> implode("|",$datas);
'Description' =>$input['Description'],
'project_id' =>$input['select_project'],
]);
if($query){
return response()->json(['message' => 'Image is Successfully Inserted','class_name' => 'alert-success']);
}
else{
return response()->json(['message' => 'Data is not inserted Inserted','class_name' => 'alert-warning'
]);
}
}

You will have to wrapped the insert code in the foreach statement: see below
foreach($files as $file){
$name=$file->getClientOriginalName();
$file->move(public_path('projects'), $name);
$query=DB::table('single_portfolio')->insert( [
'Project_name' =>$input['project_name'],
'Client_Name' =>$input['Client_name'],
'Completion_date' =>$input['Completion_date'],
'Duration' =>$input['Duration'],
'project_image_one'=> $name),
'Description' =>$input['Description'],
'project_id' =>$input['select_project'],
]);
}
