Error Responses

​
401 Unauthorized
Returned when the request is made without a valid JWT token or the token has expired
​
404 Not Found
Returned when:
  • The support request with the specified ID does not exist
  • The support request belongs to a different user (implicit ownership check)
​
422 Unprocessable Entity
Returned when validation fails. The response includes an errors object with field-specific error messages

​
Behavior

  • The user_id cannot be changed and remains associated with the original creator
  • The updated_at timestamp is automatically updated when the record is modified
  • All fields (date, location, detail) are required for the update

​
Notes

  • This is a full update endpoint (PUT), so all required fields must be provided
  • Users can only update support requests they created
  • The endpoint checks if the support request exists before attempting to update it
  • Laravel’s route model binding is used for automatic model retrieval
