Laravel controller not executing from ajax call

I have checkbox button, when it is clicked it sends an ajax request to the backend telling it the state of the box. However, the js is being executed, but i am seeing no signs of life in the controller method, even when putting Log::info etc.

Route::prefix("learn")->name("learn.")->middleware("auth.portal")->group(function () { 
    ... 
    Route::post("/lesson/viewed", "[email protected]")->name("setViewed"); 
});

The controller is:

public function setViewed(Request $request) { 
    ... 
    DebugBar::info("setViewed Called..."); 
    ... 
    return 
    response()->json([ "status" => "ok" ]); 
}

And the Ajax call is:

var vidId = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify( activeVidPlayButton.data("resources")))[0].lessonid; 
var status = me.is(":checked"); 
const URL = getBaseUrl() + "learn/lesson/viewed"; 
const postData = { 
    lessonId: vidId, 
    status: status, 
    userId: userId
}; 
console.log(URL); 
$.ajaxSetup({ 
    headers: {'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')}
}); 
$.ajax({ 
    url: URL, 
    method: "POST", 
    data: postData, 
    error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) { 
        console.log(errorThrown);
    }, 
    success: function (data, status, jqxhr) { 
        console.log(data); 
        console.log(status);
    }
});

I’m expecting any signs of execution from the controller so I can work from there but am not seeing anything. The ajax request logs an empty console line for data, and status == “success”, yet I do not see anything in the controller method working.

    In your routes.php file add

    Route::post('/orderdata', '[email protected]');

    Then use your ajax call to send data to /orderdata the data will be passed through to your OrderData method in the DashBoardController

    So your ajax call would become

    $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: '/orderdata', // This is what I have updated
    data: { id: 7 }
}).done(function (msg) {
    alert(msg);
});

    If you want to access the data you will need to add that into your method like so

    class DashBoardController extends BaseController {
    public function DashView() {
        return View:: make('dashboard');
    }

    public function OrderData($postData) { // This is the function which I want to call from ajax
        //do something awesome with that post data 
        return "I am in";
    }
}

    And update your route to

    Route::post('/orderdata/{postdata}', '[email protected]')
