The GET method is not supported for route 🔺 Laravel

Laravel: The GET method is not supported for route x. Supported methods: POST (MethodNotAllowedHttpException)

The URL exists, but not for the HTTP method used — e.g. opening a POST-only route in the browser, or a form sending GET.

Seen on: Laravel

Meaning

Common after validation failures redirecting back to a POST URL, forms missing method="POST", or using PUT/DELETE without @method in Blade forms. Route caching can also hide new routes.

Common causes

  • Visiting a POST route directly in the browser
  • Form missing method="POST" or @method('PUT')
  • Redirect pointing to a POST-only URL
  • Stale route cache

⚡ Quick fix

  1. Use the right method in forms (@csrf + @method)
  2. Add a GET route for the page
  3. Clear route cache

Detailed fix by platform

PHP

  1. php
    <form method="POST" action="{{ route('posts.update', $post) }}">
    @csrf
    @method('PUT')
</form>

How to diagnose

  1. Route — route:list methods
  2. Form — method/@method
  3. Redirect — Target URL
