            }

          $.ajax({
            type: post,
            url: url,
            data:{
                   _token: '{!! csrf_token() !!}',

        })

this is my view

<form method="post" id="form-insert" action="{{ URL::to('item/store')}}">
    <div class="form-group">
      <label for="name">Name</label>
      <input type="text" class="form-control" name="name">
    </div>
     <div class="form-group">
      <label for="text">Email address:</label>
      <input type="email" class="form-control" name="email">
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
      <label for="contact_no">Contact No:</label>
      <input type="text" class="form-control" name="contact_no">
    </div>
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary pull-right" id="add">Submit</button>
  </form>

this is my route

Route::post('/item/store', 'AjaxCrudController@store');

this is my controller

public function store(Request $request)
    {
        if($request->ajax()){
            $item = AjaxCrud::create($request->all());
            return response($item);
            //return response($request->all());
        }
    }

Answer 1

You are trying to insert the data you are submitting in your ajax request:

data:{
   _token: '{!! csrf_token() !!}',
   data
}

That means that you are trying to create an AjaxCrud resource containing two keys: _token and data . I suppose that you just want to store the data contained into the data object, that is your serialized form and should contain a name attribute.

So you have multiple solutions, the first one is to create your AjaxCrud resource from the data object:

$item = AjaxCrud::create($request->get('data'));

The other solution is to send only the data you want in your ajaxRequest, and set your CSRF token into the headers of your request.
