To read JSON data in a Laravel controller, you can use the IlluminateHttpRequest class to access the JSON data sent in the request. Here is an example of how you can read JSON data in a Laravel controller:

1. Use the IlluminateHttpRequest class in your controller:

1

use IlluminateHttpRequest;

1. Use the input() method of the Request object to access the JSON data:

public function readJsonData(Request $request)
{
    $jsonData = $request->input('data');

    // Process the JSON data here
    // You can decode the JSON data if necessary
    $jsonDataArray = json_decode($jsonData, true);

    // Return a response
    return response()->json(['status' => 'success', 'data' => $jsonDataArray]);
}

1. Make a POST request to the controller and send JSON data in the request body. For example, if you are using Postman, you can send JSON data like this:

{
    "data": {
        "key1": "value1",
        "key2": "value2"
    }
}

By following these steps, you can easily read JSON data in a Laravel controller.
