Axios put error 500 saying field cannot be empty - laravel

Question

So i am trying to update a user from the admin panel, i get the values from the form through a v-model and then i do my axios.put with all the data in a FormData(). The issue is that i get an error 500 saying that x field can't be empty, so i guess my FormData() isn't being passed on to the controller.
I tried with a post method and it worked fine. So i wonder what i did wrong ?
Here's the Vuejs code :
<script>
export default {
data () {
return {
search: '',
headers: [
{ text: 'ID', align: 'start', value: 'id'},
{ text: 'Name', value: 'name' },
{ text: 'Profile', value: 'profile' },
{ text: 'Email', value: 'email' },
{ text: 'Created At', value: 'created_at' },
{ text: 'Actions', value: 'actions' },
],
users: null,
editedUser: null,
dialog: false,
}
},
methods: {
getUsers(){
axios.get('../admin/getUsers')
.then(response => this.users = response.data)
},
editUser(item){
this.editedUser = item;
this.dialog = true;
},
submitEditedUser(){
let data = new FormData();
data.append('id', this.editedUser.id)
data.append('name', this.editedUser.name)
data.append('profile', this.editedUser.profile)
data.append('email', this.editedUser.email)
axios.put('../admin/updateUser/' + this.editedUser.id, data)
.then(res => {
console.log('done');
})
.catch(err => {
console.log('changes failed');
})
}
},
mounted(){
this.getUsers();
}
}
</script>
And here's the controller code :
/**
* Update the specified resource in storage.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param int $id
* #return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function updateUser($id, Request $request)
{
$user = User::find($id);
$user->name = request('name');
$user->profile = request('profile');
$user->email = request("email");
$user->save();
}
Everything works fine with post so nothing's wrong with the variable or the form, i think it really is just the data that's not being passed on. Although i want to use the put method because it is originally used for updating data.
Thanks !

Answer 1

can you try this? if this not work you can dd(request) inside the controller and see if is empty
public function updateUser($id, Request $request)
{
$user = User::find($id);
$user->name = $request->data['name'];
$user->profile = $request->data['profile'];
$user->email = $request->data['email'];
$user->save();
}
