Laravel 8 returns 403 UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS

I'm working with Laravel 8, and I have a resource Controller named Profile. And within this Controller, users can edit their user profile information.

So at the edit method, I put this:

public function edit(User $user)
{
    $this->authorize('edit-user', $user);
        
    return view('editprofile', compact('user'));
}

And users can access editprofile blade by this button:

<a href="{{ route('profile.edit' , ['profile' => Auth::user()->id]) }}" class="btn">Edit Profile</a>

But now the problem is, it returns this:

403 THIS ACTION IS UNAUTHORIZED.

However I am already logged in and I want to access my own profile.edit and not other users!

So if you know why am I getting this error, please let me know, I would really appreciate any idea or suggestion from you guys...

Thanks.

And here is also my route:

Route::middleware('auth')->group(function() {
    Route::resource('profile' , ProfileController::class);
});

Solution

  • Please change the followings

    • Route parameter names is "profile" So, the controller method parameter must be the same "$profile".
    
public function edit (Request $request, User $profile) {
    Gate::allows('edit-user', $profile);

    // do the logic
}
