Show me your route & controller codes.

route inside api.php : Route::post('sign-up', 'Api\UserController@signUp');
//controller function
public function signUp(SignUpRequest $request)
{
dd('inside controller);
}
//SignUpRequest rules
public function rules()
{
return [
'name' => 'required|min:1|max:190',
'email' => 'required|email|max:190|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|min:6|confirmed',
'confirm_password' => 'required|min:6',
];
}
when i hit url from post man with wrong inputs that will redirect me to index page. i actually needed request error

Actually the issue is, when anything goes for validation and respond in error then it will always goes for index page instead of giving me error. i think that i might needed some changes in request code to proceed with api??

In your controller handle validation errors and then return as json for postman.
public function signUp(SignUpRequest $request)
{
if ($validator->fails())
{
return response()->json(['status'=>'error','err_message'=>$validator->messages()->getMessages()]);
} else {
//do signup code here
return response()->json(['status'=>'Signup successful.']);
}
}

This will only work if i do not use custom request and do validation inside controller because if we use custom request then it will only go inside controller after validation passes. But i don't want to do validation inside controller. i wanted to use Request
