Answer 1

Assuming you properly defined your relationships, do
$users = User::with('projects')->get();
//show each user projects
foreach($users as $user) {
echo $user->projects;
}
//Getting project users
$projects = Project::with('users')->get();
This will give you projects list, in each list you can see which user has access or not.
Updates
Taking project with specified user_id
$projects = Project::with(['users' => function ($query) use ($user_id) {
$query->where('user_id', '=', $user_id);
}])->get();
New code
Or try to to get the user
$user = User::with('projects')->where('id', $user_id)->first();
Or via projects, constraining by user_id
$projects = Project::with('users')->whereHas('users', function ($query) use ($user_id) {
$query->where($user_id);
})->get();

Answer 2

the way i solve it:
//save user_id
$user_id = $request->id;
//select in project_user where user_id = $user_id
$project_user = DB::table('project_user')->where('user_id', '=', $user_id)->get();
//create an empty array
$p_id = array();
//fill empty array with project_id
foreach($project_user as $pro) {
$p_id[] = $pro->project_id;
}
//select code and id in project table where id = one of that [$p_id] array
$data = Project::select('code','id')->whereIn('id', $p_id)->get();
//return your data in json
return response()->json($data);

As far as I understood your question, you want to query Project as per user_id. Here is how you do it.
Project::with('users')->whereHas('users', function ($query) use ($user_id_array) {
$query->whereIn('id',$user_id_array);
})->get();
This will give you projects whose user_id are from $user_id_array. Let me know if you need any further help.
