Answer 1

If someone getting this from a rest client (ex. Postman) - You need to set the Header to Accept application/json.

To do this on postman, click on the Headers tab, and add a new key 'Accept' and type the value 'application/json'.

Answer 2

Am late to the party. if your expectation is some sort of json returned other than being redirected, then edit the exception handler so do just that.

Go to go to App\Exceptions\Handler.php Then edit this code:

public function render($request, Exception $exception)
    {
        return parent::render($request, $exception);
    }

to

public function render($request, Exception $exception)
    {
        return response()->json(
            [
                'errors' => [
                    'status' => 401,
                    'message' => 'Unauthenticated',
                ]
            ], 401
        );
    }
