Description:

FormRequest::validated() does not work with an array of objects

Steps To Reproduce:

Request class:
class UserRequest extends FormRequest { public function rules() { return [ 'name' => 'string', 'items.*.id' => 'integer' ]; } }
Input:
{"name": "Bob", "items": [{"id": 1}]}

$request->validated() returns only name

@develgold Just tested your example

public function testValidatedMethodShowsAllValidatedFields() {
        $data = [
            'name' => 'string',
            'items' => [
                [
                    'id' => 1
                ]
            ],
            'not_shown_key' => 'myString'
        ];

        $rules = [
            'name' => 'string',
            'items.*.id' => 'integer'
        ];

        $trans = $this->getIlluminateArrayTranslator();

        $validator = new Validator($trans, $data, $rules);

        $result = $validator->validated();

        $this->assertArrayHasKey('name', $result);

        $this->assertArrayHasKey('items', $result);

        $this->assertArrayHasKey('id', $result['items'][0]);
    }

This test does not Fail.

What did you get, if you call $request->all() ? Maybe it's a typo

It's a typo, thanks

Ok - got it:

Your JSON casted to an Array results only the first level in array => name and items - but every element in items remains as Object:

[
  "name" => "Bob"
  "items" => array:1 [
    0 => {#1844
      +"id": 1
    }
  ]
]
