Laravel pass url parameter to controller

Question

My current url I'm on is localhost/test/1

When I click on save button, it's going to call a rest service test/{id}/createNewTest. How do I get the {id} in the controller? Right now it's getting nothing.

Routes

Route::post('test/{id}/createNewTest', 'TestController@createNewTest');

Controller

public function createNewTest() {
   $id = Request::input('id');
}

the $id is suppose to be 1 here, but it's getting nothing

Route parameters are passed into the controller via method parameters, not as request input:

public function createNewTest($id) {
    var_dump($id); // from method parameter, not Request::input()
}

@ilearn Your route definition looks fine. Are you sure you didn't POST to test/0/createNewTest?

hmm. In the database, it's posted as 0, but when I dumped $id out, it's show {id}. Also, the rest url is passed to an $.ajax(type: 'POST', url: test/{id}/createNewTest, data: postParam). Maybe there's something wrong in the ajax?

@ilearn whatever code you have generating that ajax request is not replacing {id} with the id value. That needs to be fixed.
