I have following code in routes.php

<?php

$api = app('Dingo\Api\Routing\Router');
$api->version('v1', function ($api) {
    $api->get('test', 'App\Http\Controllers\ApiController@index');
});

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

While U check for api:route, it shows following following route:

Have you tried clearing the route cache php artisan cache:clear? – Volost

Answer 1

First: You need to run

php artisan api:cache

after adding or editing on your routes.php file. Dingo API get your routes from route cache. You can not define anonymous function on your route file. Dingo through an error while caching route. Please move your welcome view into a controller's method. Then run php artisan api:cache. I hope this will solve your problem. Additionally you can check second solution.

Second:

Dingo have a couple of configuration that need to be on your .env file.

API_PREFIX=api

Tells you that all of your api endpoint will be prefix by "api". So your api endpoint for test will be.

http://localhost:8000/api/test
