title: POST request from Postman to Laravel
body: <p>I am trying to send a post request to a Laravel project using Postman, but I get a "419 unknown status" response</p>
  
  <p>routes\web.php:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Route::post('/myaction', 'MymodelController@myaction');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>app\Http\Controllers\MymodelController.php:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  namespace App\Http\Controllers;
  
  use Illuminate\Http\Request;
  use App\Mymodel;
  
  class MymodelController extends Controller
  {
      function myaction()
      {
          return redirect('/');
     }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why does this happen?</p>
  
  <p>The same error appears independently of the content of <code>myaction()</code></p>
