<?php

namespace AppHttpControllers;

use IlluminateHttpRequest;

use IlluminateHttpResponse;
use AppCategory;

class CategoryController extends Controller
{
    public function pruebas()
    {
        return "controlador de categoria";
    }

    public function index()
    {
        $categories = Category::all();

        return response()->json([
            'code' => 200,
            'status' =>'success',
            'categories' => $categories
        ]);
    }
}

php artisan route:list

    You are getting the error because the Resource Controller seems to be incomplete.

    You could either:

    1. Create the resource controller. (https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/controllers#resource-controllers)
    2. Route resource only for index. (https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/controllers#restful-partial-resource-routes)

    To follow step 1:

    Delete/Rename the existing file and run:

    php artisan make:controller CategoryController --resource

    To follow step 2:

    Edit your route to look like:

    Route::resource('api/category', CategoryController::class)->only([
    'index'
]);

    It’s probably because you are trying to access the single category and that route uses show method in the controller which is not defined. Also it’s better to use plural name for your resource routes:

    Route::resource('api/categories', CategoryController::class);
