Laravel – My download button is throwing a 404 route not found

I’m trying to get my app to download an Excel file when clicking the button. I can’t seem to get past this 404 route error.

Route

Route::get('/exportPriceList', [ProductController::class, 'exportPriceList'])->name('products.exportPriceList');

Controller

use IlluminateHttpRequest;
use IlluminateSupportFacadesStorage;

class ProductController extends Controller
{
    public function exportPriceList(Request $request)
    {
        $price_list = Storage::download('/documents/price-list.xlsx');

        return response()->download($price_list);
    }
}

Blade/View

<li class="nav-item">
    <a href="/exportPriceList" class="btn btn-primary">
        <i class="fas fa-download">
        </i>Download Price List</a>
</li>

Update:
Although the /exportPriceList gave me nothing. Calling the route gave me a new error to chase….

Class "BrandController" does not exist

ANSWER!!!
Ohhh man that was weird but I learned some cool new tools

php artisan route:clear
php artisan route:cache

or, if you run into some other file location or view errors, just run

$>php artisan optimize:clear

worked perfectly…
