Laravel API validation error response
I have this Laravel 9 API project and I can now return response whenever I inserted/updated successfully. But when it comes to validation in which I used FormRequest a separate file to validate inputs. My question is is there a "proper/safe way" to return validation errors as a json response?

{
"accept"=>"application/json"
}
I think the simplest way would be adding the header to every request you sent.

as @frankielee has said, you need to tell Laravel that you expect a json response
Level 1
as @frankielee said just set Accept in your header and if you want to customize the validation error use ValidationException in Exceptions->Handler.php
//Validation errors
if($exception instanceof ValidationException and $request->expectsJson()){
return response([
'data'=>[
'message'=>'text',
'errors'=>$exception->validator->getMessageBag()
]
],Response::HTTP_UNPROCESSABLE_ENTITY);
}

Guys! thank you for your help! I solved it by modifying Exception/Handler.php error rendering. Got to solve 1 last problem, it seems like I cant catch & modify Internal Server Error ( 500xx) status code response.
Is there anyway to do this or
