laravel session [] operator not supported for strings

I am trying to append value in existing session with request data, but i am getting [] operator not supported for strings error.

The request data is string.

Here is whole code,

    if(Session::has('cart')) {
        Session::push('cart',$request->id);

    } else Session::set('cart',$request->id);
