Laravel 9.5 API Routes prefix gives 404 page - Issue and solution

I lost a few hours scratching my head why #Laravel 9.5 was not loading api/v1 route group URLs ,it gave me 404 pages.

Not sure if this is a feature or error, but the RouteServiceProvider.php api prefix was "Api" not the usual lowercase "api" ? ( same for filename call routes/Api.php), Changed this and it works.

Hope it helps someone.
