Update API in laravel 5.7 - api

Question

I have create API of update my project details, I test it in POSTMAN app it shows the success message but there no effect in the database.
Here are my code:
ProjectsController.php
public function UpdateProject($id)
{
$data = Input::all();
$q = Project::where('id',$id)->update($data);
return response()->json([
'code' => SUCCESS,
'message' => 'Project data update successfully'
]);
}
api.php
Route::post('UpdateProject/{id}','ProjectsController#UpdateProject');
Postman - see image.
output in postman:
{
"code": "200",
"message": "Project data update successfylly"
}
Can anyone help me out?
Thank you

Answer 1

I think you need to check all input details closely , it also comes with token when you submit the form so you need to save all details except token
Change this
$data = Input::all();
to this
$data = Input::except('_token');
I hope this resolves the issue.

Answer 2

in your model add fillable :
protected $fillable = ['name', 'project_group_id','number','ROM','address','city','state','zip','start_date','end_date','duration','description','timeline_type','project_type_id','project_category_id','office_id'];

Answer 3

You have forgotten to run the ->save() method after updating the data:
public function UpdateProject($id)
{
$data = Input::all();
$q = Project::find($id)
$q = $q->fill($data);
$q->save();
return response()->json([
'code' => SUCCESS,
'message' => 'Project data update successfully'
]);
}

Answer 4

You can use this method it will reduce your code
Route (api)
Route::post('UpdateProject/{project}','ProjectsController#UpdateProject');
ProjectsController.php
public function UpdateProject(Request $request, Project $project)
{
$data = $request->all();
$project->update($data);
return response()->json([
'code' => SUCCESS,
'message' => 'Project data update successfully'
]);
}
