How to read JSON data in laravel controller? - json

Question

Before this, I was getting 405 methods not allowed error in live server
ajax call to upload files:
$('#form-repeater').on('submit',function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajaxSetup({ headers: { 'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content') } });
let thiss=$(this);
let form = document.getElementById('form-repeater');
let data =new FormData(form);
$.ajax({
type:thiss.attr('method'),
url:thiss.attr('action'),
data:data,
dataType:'JSON',
// ContentType:'application/json',
cache: false,
processData: false,
success:function(response){
if(response.message=='1'){
Swal.fire(
'Product Added Successfully',
'',
'success'
)
setTimeout(function(){
window.location.href="/banner";
}, 2000);//wait 2 seconds
}
else{
error = response.errors;
if(error.staff){
$('#form-repeater .invalid-staff').html(error.staff);
}else{
$('#form-repeater .invalid-staff').html('');
}
if(error.customerNumber){
$('#form-repeater .invalid-cust_numb').html(error.customerNumber);
}else{
$('#form-repeater .invalid-cust_numb').html('');
}}});
This is my response from ajax call:enter image description here
normally I can't retrieve data in my controller:
I debug using dd($request->all());

When sending JSON requests to your application, you may access the JSON data via the input method as long as the Content-Type header of the request is properly set to application/json. You may even use "dot" syntax to dig into JSON arrays: $name = $request->input('user.name');
Then on your controller you could do something like this:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class UserController extends Controller
{
/**
* Store a new user.
*
* #param Request $request
* #return Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
$name = $request->input('user.name');
// Manage your data the way you want
}
}
