API Resources: With or Without "data"?

If you use Eloquent API Resources to return data, they will be automatically wrapped in 'data'. If you want to remove it, add JsonResource::withoutWrapping(); in app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php.

1class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
2{
3 public function boot()
4 {
5 JsonResource::withoutWrapping();
6 }
7}
