Remove csrf token only for single method - Laravel


I am using paytabs payment gateway api. In that api, a redirect url have to given, so that once the transaction is completed, the page will redirect automatically to your given redirect url. The url was a GET url but since the response of the api comes as a POST type, I was unable to use get url. To resolve that issue, I made that route a POST url but by making it post method, I am not getting any CSRF token. In the end, I get this issue.

TokenMismatchException in VerifyCsrfToken.php line 68:

Is there any way by which I could disbale CSRF token functionality for only single POST url?

--SUGGESTION TRIED-- I did this as per your suggestion

class VerifyCsrfToken extends Middleware
{
    protected $except = [
        'signup/complete',
    ];
}

and now getting

Class 'Middleware' not found

Solution

  • From the docs:

    Typically, you should place these kinds of routes outside of the web middleware group that the RouteServiceProvider applies to all routes in the routes/web.php file. However, you may also exclude the routes by adding their URIs to the $except property of the VerifyCsrfToken middleware:

    class VerifyCsrfToken extends Middleware
    {
        protected $except = [
            'stripe/*',
            'http://example.com/foo/bar',
            'http://example.com/foo/*',
        ];
    }
