I have a Laravel API server which only has one web route (test page), everything else is controlled via dingo/api package and all is working correctly.

In config/api.php I've set 'prefix' => env('API_PREFIX', '/') as it's only an API server.

I've since installed Laravel Nova and kept getting JSON errors message on the /nova route: No hint path defined for [nova].

I eventually figured out I need to change the prefix to 'prefix' => env('API_PREFIX', '/api'). Now Nova works correctly, but my API routes are broken.

In Postman when I do GET /test (prefix /) works, but Nova doesn't, and when I do /api/test/ (prefix /api), Nova does work but I get an error on the API return:

 "message": "",
 "exception": "Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Exception\NotFoundHttpException",
 "file": "/home/vagrant/Code/guest-api/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Routing/RouteCollection.php",
 "line": 179,
 "trace": [
 
 "file": "/home/vagrant/Code/guest-api/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Routing/Router.php",
 "line": 633,
 "function": "match",
 "class": "Illuminate\Routing\RouteCollection",
 "type": "->"
 ,
 
 "file": "/home/vagrant/Code/guest-api/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Routing/Router.php",
 "line": 622,
 "function": "findRoute",
 "class": "Illuminate\Routing\Router",
 "type": "->"
 ,
 ...
 ]

Without an error message, I can't see what is wrong? Also, when I do php artisan api:routes I get the correct route back:

+------+----------+-----------------+------+-----------------------------------------------+-----------+------------+----------+------------+
| Host | Method | URI | Name | Action | Protected | Version(s) | Scope(s) | Rate Limit |
+------+----------+-----------------+------+-----------------------------------------------+-----------+------------+----------+------------+
| | GET|HEAD | /something/test | | AppHttpControllersAuthAuthController@test | No | v1 | | |
+------+----------+-----------------+------+-----------------------------------------------+-----------+------------+----------+------------+

Instead of adding the /api as a fallback parameter, you should add the prefix to your .env file like: API_PREFIX=api as described here
