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.
Laravel controller not executing from ajax call
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.phpfile addRoute::post('/orderdata', '[email protected]');Then use your ajax call to send data to
/orderdatathe data will be passed through to yourOrderDatamethod in theDashBoardControllerSo 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]')
