Cakephp 3 : How to get max amout row from a table

simplest way

$user = $this->Users->find('all',[
   'fields' => array('amount' => 'MAX(Users.id)'),
]);

using select instead of an options array

$user = $this->Users->find()
    ->select(['amount' => 'MAX(Users.id)']);

making use of cake SQL functions

$query = $this->Users->find();
$user = $query
    ->select(['amount' => $query->func()->max('Users.id')]);

the above three all give the same results

if you want to have a single record you have to call ->first() on the query object:

$user = $user->first();
$amount = $user->amount;

Simplest method using CakePHP 3:

$this->Model->find('all')->select('amount')->hydrate(false)->max('amount')

Will result in an array containing the maximum amount in that table column.
