php - PUT Request does not function with Request Class in a Laravel 8.x application

Question

On a Laravel 8.x application, a PUT request does not work with the the Standard Request Class.

    save() {
        let formData = this.prepareFormInput('save');

        this.saveBeforeHook();

        axios.put(`/${this.model}/edit`, formData, this.axiosHeaders)
            .then(r => {
                if(r.data.errors) {
                    this.formDialog.errors = r.data.errors;
                } else {
                    if(r.data.record) {
                        this.saveAfterHook(r.data.record);
                    }

                    this.$root.formDialog.show = false;
                    this.$root.formMode = "add";
                }
            }).
            catch(e => {
                if(e.response.data.errors) {
                    this.formDialog.errors = e.response.data.errors;
                }
            });
    }

I have validated that the PUT request is sending the correct parameters:

However the request object does not correctly set any posted data. Looing at the request object, none of the data is set.

I have isolated the issue down to a PUT request in Laravel 8.x.

Using a POST request with the same information in Laravel 8.x works fine.

However the PUT request does not SET parameters into the Request object:

Using the same PUT request in a Laravel 5.x application works fine.

Why are PUT requests not properly functioning in Laravel 8.x?

I think this will fix your problem For PUT you want to make your form like

<form action="/example" method="POST">
    <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="PUT">
    <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">
</form>

or

<form action="/example" method="POST">
    @method('PUT')
    @csrf
</form>

EDIT: If you are using ajax then use method as "POST" and pass _method value as "PUT". For more info: Laravel AJAX PUT & DELETE
