How to use API Routes in Laravel 5.3
In Laravel 5.3 API routes were moved into the api.php file. But how can I call a route in api.php file? I tried to create a route like this: Route::get('/test',function(){ return "ok"; }); I tried the following URLs but both returned the NotFoundHttpException exception: http://localhost:8080/test/public/test http://localhost:8080/test/public/api/test How can I call this API route? You call it by http://localhost:8080/api/test ^^^ If you look in app/Providers/RouteServiceProvider.php you'd see that by default it sets the api prefix for API routes, which you can change of course if you want to.
